Cold Weather Flying is a spell that is taught by a <Cold Weather Flying Trainer> for 500. It enables players to use their flying mounts in Northrend. Druids too will require this to use their [Flight Form]/ [Swift Flight Form] in Northrend. Players have to be level 68 or higher to train this ability. Your character only needs to train Cold Weather Flying once; you do not need to re-train if you acquire it before learning Artisan (300) riding.
Flight Master's License, an ability that is very similar to Cold Weather Flying, is required to fly in Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms and was added in Patch 4.0.3a. It is only purchasable with a valid copy of World of Warcraft: Cataclysm and requires Level 60.

Trivia
- The ability to fly in Northrend was initially meant to require a questline, but this was removed. Instead, a character had to be level 77 and offer 1000.
- An alternative was [Tome of Cold Weather Flight], which could be bought at level 80 at the same price, but used at level 68 by an alternate character.
- Patch 4.0.1 lowered the level requirement to 68 and the price to 500. This price is discounted with respective Northrend factions of the Warsong Offensive for Horde players, and the Valiance Expedition for Alliance characters.
