That was "War Dawn". Megatron, Shockwave, & Soundwave were flying around Cybertron, sporting their new flying abilities. In MTMTE, everyone flew, including the Autobots. After developing the show, just the Decepticons flew. However, when the Dinobots were created, they all flew as well. Don't ask why, they just did. And in Season 3, in "Forever is a Long Time Coming", the Autobots flew in the first few minutes. I however, think it's just because they'e in space, & who can't fly in space? There you go.

All transformers have retro boosters that they can use to 'fly' short distances. These retros, however, have very little fuel/ are very energy consuming, so are not often used.
The Autobots only have retros, except of course the flying-alt mode Autobots.
The Decepticons are different. Their 'retros' are either proper boosters, or have a much grander supply of fuel/ are a lot mroe energy efficient. As most 'cons have flying alt modes anyway, this is kinda a moot thing.
