Just a really quick suggestion that doesn't involve a great stretch of the imagination!
Simply:
1. Feathers i feel are not very useful after a steady supply of arrows.
2. Horses are fantastic, but have however made pigs quite redundant.
Introducing Golden Feathers!
Crafting recipe similar to that of crafting and golden carrot/apple. (Feather in the middle surrounded by nuggets)
When used in potion making. The golden feather grants reduced damage from falling. (stackable with feather falling boots). If the potion is augmented with fermented spider eye, it results in a greater jump height potion!
But the big part is... flying pig saddle!
Crafted with a saddle in the middle, 6 golden feathers and 2 diamonds (just to make it harder to craft) creates the flying pig saddle! Place it on a pig and with the right click of your carrot on a stick the pig will jump and glide. The pig can flap its wings and increase altitude every time you right click your carrot on a stick thus limiting your flying time (not over powered). This gives the little pigs a reason to breed them, name them and love them.
Thats all from me. Tell me what you think!
P.S. I've seen flying golden winged pigs in the Aether Mod that you could ride years ago... So i think it can be done

This is very wise. I guess all those kids with "I'll do my homework...when pigs fly" shirts will be out of luck.
EDIT: Carrots on sticks are pretty easy to get however, the saddle would need a durability too.
Maybe just reduce the durability on the carrot on a stick...? saddles are rare to find in bulk is all...
considering you can only have the carrot on a stick in your hand, its not exactly creative mode flying... just a transportation means :). usually from a high place to a low ;P
I actually really like this idea, feathers do need more uses. The flying pig-saddle option is amazing, but I would probably start calling them "piggy-gliders."
On a more randon note, why is your profile pic a concrete tube?

Its a mystery that only a select few actually know...
Welp, there's one more use for piggies, and a pretty creative one too! Support
Another idea: If you hit the shift key, you could get the pig to fold its wings and descend. If it falls hard enough (thereby earning the "When Pigs Fly" achievement, ironically enough XD), it will do damage to whatever it lands upon, like an anvil only much less powerful, making flying pigs also useful if you want to hurt a mob in a humorous way. Kinda like a vertical version of my idea over here: http://www.minecraft...tossing-charge/

Maybe I've been playing too much Banjo Kazooie.
Okay, did you really just reply to your own thread?
