How do i come to Northrend?

[Wornia]

Hello folks! Im wondering if some of all betaplayers can tell me how to get to Northrend. If you have to take some kind of ship from ratchet or bootybay or that kind of thing. :P i have to know so i will get my rep back if thats the way it will be.

Orgrimmar and Stormwind (They're building Stormwind Harbor as we speak, go look for it between the cathedral and park districts along the canal) will both have ships, as will the Undercity. I'm not sure what the second Ally town is though, I would expect Darnassus seeing as its on the other continent.

Alliance:
Stormwind Harbor > Borean Tundra
Menethil Harbor > Howling Fjord

Horde:
Orgrimmar (western Zep tower, it's new) > Borean Tundra
Undercity > Howling Fjord

Well, Orgrrimmar and Undercity have more of a coast line that Stormwind does seeing as the Zones you enter SW through are land locked (not on the map but for what we can actually access) But even still the Horde are traveling via Zepplin, which are basically air ships given how they look Alliance are traveling via boats which is the standard way of things for the two factions.

I saw a screen shot, a while back, showing the zeppelin launch pad/tower for the Undercity heading to Northrend, it was positioned right next to the current flight tower. I also read that it was the same for Orgrimmar'z Zeppelin. Stormwind currently has NPC's building the road down to Stormwind Harbor which is what the Allys will use. And the second Ally path to Northrend is actually outside the Exodar and Darny. its in that town along the dark coast where the other ships land, that really big dock.

Just to elaborate on this for you the undercity and orgrimmar Zeplins take you to opposite parts of the northrend and once there you can gain the flight points as per the origonal system of learning flight points.
As for the types of new flying mounts,,,Well I hope the redo the deathknight home one as it looks like the spawn of Pingu and a kids skelton drawing.
The Skeletal dragons are awesome tho...
And for all the people that got the Amani war bears Pah! your gonna wish you waited lol

Here is an image shamelessly stolen from a guildie that posted this info on our guild page...



This is the new zep landing for trips out to Northrend.. as you can tell, it's on the other side of the current zep landing.
