The
World of Warcraft website has a new update concerning air transportation in the game. The overview (which may be accessed
here) discusses the Alliance mounts (Gryphons and Hippogryphs) as well as those of the Horde (Vampire Bats and Wyverns). Screenshots of each may be seen by clicking on the thumbs below.
A two minute movie of a Gryphon ride from Stormwind to Ironforge is also available for both PC and Mac users. You may view it by following this link and selecting your operating system.
