Comment by Iamme My life... Comment by AeronPeryton For YEARS I've been wondering why Goblin balloons aren't used for some of the shorter flight paths. It wouldn't be nearly as fast, but it would be such a nice break from winged creatures.\r

Anyone who hasn't bothered to yet, should get on a Horde toon and just enjoy the zeppelin ride from Orgrimmar to Thunderbluff. Because it's the only zeppelin route that doesn't involve zoning it's super relaxing and fun to zoom into eye-level and just look out as the Northern Barrens slowly drifts by. Comment by Seumas69 I very rarely comment but I had too! This is what I do all the time and you also have to ensure the music is on to set the tone.

I'd rather arrive to my destination than go down in flames (as is usual with anything goblin-made). Comment by rikumaru I do this on my Alliance characters from time to time. The trick is to ride on *top* of the zeppelin so that guards won't kill harass you.\r
\r
Extremely relaxing! Perfect place for a picnic with someone special. Comment by serangel i don't get the point of these yet...\r
also stop steal wowcrendors non content ideas Comment by Sheraxia This sounds like a fun event! I can't wait to go and see the land from in a balloon! Comment by Narlash Yay! Pandaren content! :) Comment by Amyah LOVE IT ! Comment by Reignac Wait, traveled back in time in Outland? But Outland is the present one! Comment by Shoadowolf Wait, didn't Schnottz die in the Uldum questline? I thought he burned to death or something. How is he still alive? Comment by regma Those landings. I just hope that Blizz will fix them as Im sure being dropped off like most of those isnt going to be good.. Unless you was planning to be there anyways. Comment by Garmheim First, I want one of those Pandaren balloons as a 3-person flying mount.\r

Second, with all the micro-holidays that are coming I'd like to renew a suggestion that I made a couple of years back that we have an August snowball fight inside The Molten Front Cataclysm) on Mount Hyjal. It would be a PvP event. Sides could bring snowballs of all sizes that they have saved in their guild's freezers (You mean your guild doesn't have a freezer? Oh, my!) from Winter Veil or buy them from a Steamwheedle goblin in a partial snowman costume inside The Molten Front. It would be, of course, The Snowballs' Chance in Hell event with achievements like "A Tall, Frosty Order" gotten by turning 4 or more enemy players into frozen snowmen in x number of seconds, "That's Cold!" combining 5 giant snowballs into 1 Humongous Snowball and dropping it on the enemy freezing some designated percentage of their team, and, of course, the achievement, "A Snowball's Chance in Hell" for winning the event. Since I conceive of this as a friendly match with no deaths, just freezes of varying durations, there should be a tavern on some floating island of land inside The Molten Front to which both sides can adjourn together (bridge opens up once the battle ends) to drink cold beers after the fight. I picked August for the event despite that being winter in the southern hemisphere because it is the month currently without any festival of any kind. If that doesn't have much to recommend it as a festival, I don't know what does. Comment by KittyGryph All these micro-holidays are just becoming S.E.L.F.I.E. ideas...\r
\r
Hmm I guess I'll just make a folder full of holiday screenshots since they're seemingly meaningless events otherwise...\r
\r
I mean really, we should get something for doing these "flavor" holidays; if not a useful item, at least something we can keep to remember it by :\/ Comment by gretagallowtree I'm going to have to remember that the answer to " What is the traditional greeting used in Suramar City?" is Dafuq :D Awesome video and I can't wait for this event. Comment by Saverin I hope that's not all and they add more routes\\landing points in old world zones( Comment by HavenCeles First, I want one of those Pandaren balloons as a 3-person flying mount.

That is a brilliant idea that I wholeheartedly support ^_^ Comment by Unsuitablebear Yes, ride balloons for 4 days for no reason or reward. lol >< Comment by Padren Someone really needs to make a detailed guide on all the balloon locations. I've been flying over nagrand for ages and can't find it.
