I'd choose teleportation and it isn't even close.
Invisibility has always seemed to me like a limited-use kind of thing where there aren't a lot of situations in reality where I would have reason to use it. I mean, I guess if I did more sneaking around or surveillance or something, but I'm not particularly interested in being in places where I don't want people to know I actually am, or to eavesdrop on conversations or anything.
Flight I could imagine being immensely fun and freeing, to be able to cruise around at various altitudes and see the world. I suppose it would depend on how fast I could fly and whether I was detectable by anyone else, because the last thing I need is to constantly get chased by military aircraft who are investigating a UAP or something. Now if I could combine the ability to fly with the ability to be invisible... now we're talking!
But I would still probably choose teleportation because being able to instantly be somewhere else would be so incredibly useful on a regular basis. My dad and my brother's family live 500 miles away from me, but I could teleport over to have dinner once a week and see them. I'd never have to worry about a long commute again. I could see all the sights of the world with a moment's thought rather than hours of travel. Even if teleportation only applied to me and I couldn't take anyone with me, it would be amazing to be able to instantly be wherever you wanted or needed to be without more than a moment's thought.
