Pretty much whatever the fiction writer wants it to be. They're sort of a fantasy version of a spaceship or airship. In medieval times, people believed aether was the fifth element, the essence of the heavens and the celestial bodies. It was said to fill the realm beyond our terrestrial sphere. A lot later, aether was brought up as a possible explanation for how light waves can travel through space when there's nothing in space for a wave to exist in; scientists wondered if maybe space was full of some intangible substance that was light's medium( it isn't; light is actually its own medium, so it can travel anywhere).

Anyway, aether is one of those plot devices perfect for a fantasy setting where you want something kinda Science Fiction-y, but still ancient and mystical-sounding enough to look like it belongs in a world of magic. So an aether ship is some sort of enchanted vessel made to sail through the aether, possibly to other worlds or just serve as a really cool mode of transport.
