Yes. On very high-pop worlds IMTU, it's actually illegal to manually operate a vehicle. Even incoming/outgoing starships must turn control over to the tower once they are below low orbit (although a human controller is always actively monitoring in *that* control loop).

 

IMTU most ship's computers are capable of flying a starship from point A to point B while in real space with only the barest minimum colloquial instruction: "Take us to Alderan and don't spare the horses." will generally get you to said destination at the ship's best accelleration. However, a ship's computer will fly only in a safe manner, while strictly obeying all flight restrictions. If the prospectively destination can't be reached in such a fashion - e.g. risky manuevers in close quarters will be required - then the computer will refuse the order and a human pilot will have to take over. However, even where a totally automated trip is possible, most regulatory authorities still require a conscious, appropriately-skilled sophont in the control loop (thus the minimum skill requirements). Also (IMTU) all computers must be shut down completely for entry into, travel through and exit out of jump space. Something about jump causes awake and aware computers to go totally and completely bats**t.
