You may want to run through the floating island a few times just to give more of your party members a chance to level up and learn some magic. In general don't bring Celes along if you plan to go all the way through, since she will automatically join your party when you lose Shadow, which would let you keep 4 characters the whole way through. The first part of your battle will be just fighting your way onto the floating island itself. | You may want to run through the floating island a few times just to give more of your party members a chance to level up and learn some magic.

Pick three characters to go onto the floating island. Strong fire magic comes in handy for the battle with Ultros, but just pick your strongest party in general. You'll fight a bunch of monsters from the Imperial Air Force, Ultros and Chupon, then fall onto the floating island while fighting another boss. Save, and talk to Shadow to have him join your party. I'd recommend giving Shadow the Genji Glove and black belt combo again, but do not let him use the assassin, its instant kill will regenerate undead monsters here. In general the best way to survive the floating island is to make sure someone used Zoneseek to learn Osmose and cast that to regenerate MP, and heal the party in between battles. I generally take three groups of three through the floating island to learn some magic and build up, then go to engage the bosses after that. You'll fight the Atma weapon, confront Kefka and have Celes join then go through a sequence to escape in a few minutes time. If you want the blue item you see along your way don't try to pick it up directly, go around and approach it from the right. Fight the boss at the end (the boss absorbs all magic); when finished, walk to the cliff's edge and, once prompted, select the option to "wait" before returning to the Blackjack. Wait for the timer to reach the 5 second mark and Shadow should finally rejoin you in a quick cutscene | Pick three characters to go onto the floating island.
