I was going to suggest wildebeest and zebra, but then had a rather better thought...the wandering albatross!
(Anyone want to hazard a guess at how far a large bird that almost never lands can fly in a day???)

How about this beast? Larger than an A380 and capable of carrying 10 tonnes while staying airborne for 5 days.
