If it were done on a personal scale, instead of a 'spaceship' scale, it ramps down the power necessary considerably. Why take the entire spaceship, when all you want to do is move the person? | |

Just make sure to aim really precisely when you accelerate them to FTL speeds, because if you miss your target, you'll never stop going. | |
