Transportation encompasses the various means on traveling around in World of Warcraft.

Basic
Walking/Running
Running is the main method of exploring the world. Flight paths require you to run to their Flight Masters around the world to unlock them. Teleports, Portals, Boats, Zeppelins, and the Deeprun Tram only have set destinations. Mounts are a form of running.
Around level 30, several classes gain a power to increase their run speed.
- Hunters have [Aspect of the Cheetah] and [Aspect of the Pack].
- Druids have a [Travel Form] trainable at level 30. Also, talent points can be invested to increase running speed in cat form by 15% per each of two points for this talent in the Feral tree.
- Shamans have a Ghost Wolf Form, trainable at level 20.

Swimming
Swimming is, by far, the slowest way of getting anywhere. It can also be dangerous, as you have a breath meter while underwater, and if you go deep enough (meaning far enough away from land), a fatigue meter. When a breath or fatigue meter reaches 0, the player takes damage every few seconds, until they surface or leave the high pressure area.
Druids have an [Aquatic Form] that protects them from drowning, and increases their swimming speed by 50%.
