The Valerian, a planet-hopper

A planet-hopper is a type of terran passenger transport vessel. Capable of landing on a planetary surface, it is similar in design to the Quantradyne APOD-33 dropship, albeit having a single large engine instead of rotating thrusters. Its interior includes a center aisle with passenger chairs either side and luggage racks above them.[1] They possess an onboard computer that allows pre-programmed flight paths.[2]

They are often used by the Dominion Armed Forces to transport troops.[3]
