About 10,000 years ago the lands of Azeroth were combined as a single pangaea known as Kalimdor. However, a night elf, Queen Azshara, was tricked into opening a portal that would allow the evil titan Sargeras into the world. Azshara used what was known as the Well of Eternity, the source of magic in Azeroth, as the fuel for the portal. Before it could be opened all the way, the portal and the Well of Eternity were destroyed, causing an event known as the Sundering. The world groaned as the lands were split apart into two separate continents. As a result, new forms of travel needed to be created to traverse the newly created sea – ships and zeppelins.

Traveling by ship is a common and simple process. Board the ship, and it takes you across the ocean. Ships don't come as much of a surprise, since now there is so much water to traverse. There is no fee to use this method of transportation as costs have been covered by the various cities that also uses these ships to transport goods back and forth. Mainly the forces of the Alliance use boats to travel between continents, although the goblins have their own shipping lanes and they allow passengers from either side of the conflict to ride upon their ships.

  1. Menethil Harbor (Wetlands)
    1. To Auberdine (Darkshore)
    2. To Theramore (Dustwallow Marsh)

  5. Feathermoon Stronghold (Feralas)

Zeppelins were first crafted by goblins fighting for the Horde during the second war. Small in design, they were used as scout vessels to reveal enemy locations. Since that time they have been enlarged and are now used by the Horde as a means of transportation for supplies and troops. Goblin zeppelins are said to run on highly explosive rocket fuel and gnome babies (as of yet the babies are unconfirmed) and can travel at very rapid paces.
