Auraxis may be earth-sized, but with really miniscule land masses, so they show all the continents to scale with one another, but snip the vast stretches of ocean in between out of the map because they don't matter and are inconvenient.

Perhaps they may add naval battles in the future?

Keeping the oceans to scale is necessary to keep an accurate track of weather patterns.

We made a 3 continent hop on a galaxy last night, I would say it takes 5-10 minutes to fly across the entire continent to the other side. A bit longer because I flew low, and off the coast so we would not be spotted.

i always thought the main reason why u cant fly across the ocean is because then it would make the cont. lock kind of pointless
