 Question:   
I was wondering how to understand that after the flood, and the earth was repopulated and languages were garbled, how did those people get to all parts of the earth without the use of an airplane?
 Answer:   
Boats,
It is obvious that this is possible due to the fact that Noah himself built a very large and extremely effective boat. A study of Gen 6:13 to 8:14 will show that Noah built a boat that was floating on the water for over one year.
In addition reed boats are mentioned in the book of Job. Job is believed to be a contemporary of Abraham. There have also been people in the twentieth century who have built a reed boat like ones used in ancient Egypt. They sailed to South America successfully. This was in fact to verify their theory that the people of South America originated in Egypt.
Also When God sent confusion to the people that resulted in the many languages it was in response to their technology and the twisted purpose of trying to build a tower to heaven. Gen. 11:6. This was much later than Noah so boat building would be very simple for them.

The LORD said, "Behold, they are one people, and they all have the same language. And this is what they began to do, and now nothing which they purpose to do will be impossible for them.

Man did eventually set foot on the moon.

The bootom line is that before all of this Noah had already built a boat that could sail the world
