The fastest way from Thunder Bluff to Undercity in WoW Forever is a flight to Orgrimmar and the zeppelin to Undercity. It takes about 11 minutes, counting the average wait for the zeppelin. This is a Horde route. There's no direct flight or zeppelin between the two cities, and Thunder Bluff's zeppelin goes to Zephras Isle instead. The zeppelin towers stand outside the city walls.

Faster ways

  • Your hearthstone, if it's set to an inn in Undercity.
  • A mage in your group can open a portal to a capital city.

Good to know

  • You can only fly to flight points you've already found. Talk to each flight master on the way once, and the next trip gets shorter.
  • Boats and zeppelins went missing for long stretches in launch week. Blizzard put temporary portals near most docks and in the zeppelin towers. See boat or zeppelin not coming.
  • The times are estimates. Flight times were measured in Classic and the boat timings are modelled, so allow a minute or two either way.
  • The Shortest Path Forever add-on plans this route for you in game and counts down to the next departure.
