Another easy way is to take the Blasted Lands portals from other major cities, go through the Dark Portal, and then take the port by the Stairs of Destiny, Hellfire Peninsula, to Stormwind.
Ironforge--capital city of the Dwarves, in central EK.
  • Mages: Portal: Ironforge/ Teleport: Ironforge
  • From the Dwarven District, Stormwind: Deeprun Tram, an express subway.

  • Portal from Vale of Eternal Blossoms, second floor of Shrine of Seven Stars
Menethil Harbor, Wetlands--flooded port city in central EK
  • Boat from Theramore
  • Boat from Howling Fjord
  • Fun fact: Cap'n Placeholder was a temporary fix in WoW's beta, allowing players to travel between Menethil Harbor and Auberdine before boats were implemented. When the Menethil boat glitched on live, he was put back in game and instantly gained mass popularity since his travel was infinitely faster than waiting for the boat. Players were disappointed with his removal when the boats were fixed in April 2005 and even made a lamentpetitioning Blizzard to reinstate him. He's since shown up on the Cataclysm beta as a level 95 elite Horde dancing on the Goblin Rocketway in Azshara.
Location Transportation Methods
Undercity--capital city of the Forsaken, in Northern EK.
  • Mages: Portal: Undercity/ Teleport: Undercity

Grom'gol Base Camp, Northern Stranglethorn. Zeppelins from both Orgrimmar and Undercity arrive here.
Gnomeregan, a low level instance and former capital of the gnomes, in central EK. As this is in low-level Alliance territory, it's very difficult for Horde to get to, especially before LFD. Scooty by Grom'gol Base Camp will port you inside Gnomeregan now--before, it used to be even sweeter. Before Cataclysm, he gave a quest that rewarded Goblin Transponder, which ported Horde right outside Gnomeregan--perfect for Ironforge raids. For a brief period of time, Alliance could pick up this teleport as well.
Location Transportation Methods

Shattered Beachhead, Blasted Lands, Southern EK.

  • Leaving Nethergarde Needs You!/ Call of the Warmatron incomplete will also keep a portal from Silithus to Blasted Lands open.
  • Portal from Shattrath City, near Ad'al.
  • Alliance players have a quick flight if they choose to fly from Ironforge--you will phase right after leaving the city.

Creates a mole machine in the style of Brewfest--anyone who clicks on it in your party/raid will be transported to the BRD bar. This makes for amusement when people click on it at unexpected times, like right before Alterac Valley starts. This item is obtained from Keg-Shaped Treasure Chest, a reward for killing Coren Direbrew.
Western Plaguelands--Northern EK. Keeping the breadcrumb quest The Battle for Andorhal/ The Battle for Andorhal will allow you access to a teleport from Booty Bay to Andorhal.
Alterac Valley, battleground in central EK. Stormpike Insignia Rank 6/ Frostwolf Insignia Rank 6 ports the user back to their faction's leader in Alterac Valley (must be already in the battleground), but the battleground has changed so much, it's not really essential. This is tied to a series of quests, starting with Proving Grounds/ Proving Grounds, in which you get a new insignia at each reputation rank.

  • There are portals from Stormwind and Orgrimmar--unlike Wintergrasp, they do not despawn after a loss, or port you directly to the battle area.
  • Mages can also port/teleport level 85+ players to Tol Barad.
