If you don't like sailing the seas, you can use server jump technique:
create another world, call it "transfer", mine as much as you can and fill up your inventory. Leave your primary world->>join "transfer"->>build few chests and unload iron/ore/Dragon Eggs->>go back to your world->>teleport to required destination ->>log into "transfer", pick up your stuff->>log into main world.
Mission accomplished, it will take +\- 5 min
