Official interactive Northrend map
In case you'd like to get a sneak peek at what you'll be rampaging all over in Wrath, Blizzard has just put up an interactive map of the new continent of Northrend on its site. It's pretty, of course, but also information-packed. For each zone, if you click on it, it lists the following information:
- Level range of the zone; the two starting zones are listed as 68–72, as we expected.
- Flight points, Alliance, Horde, and neutral. All the zones seem to have plenty of flight points, which will make it less painful not to have flying mounts until 77.
- Instances, with levels for those.
- Raids. Interestingly, both the raids currently in beta (Naxxramas and Chamber of Aspects) are in Dragonblight; I hadn't realized that.
- Zone map
Obviously, if you're averse to these kinds of spoilers, don't click over. Otherwise, enjoy the pretty pictures. 55 days until LK; I can't wait.

Why does horde get more flight paths than alliance overall?
Eh, typical...

Yeah I noticed that too. 5 FP's in Howling Fjord... Nice to have a few benefits being horde.

horde gets more flight paths because alliance has better located 1s so that horde has to go up down and to 4 other places just to get to thier destination and ends up taking longer and costing more money while the alliance flies right accros the zone and pays 1 fee try to think things through next time

Man, 2 months sounds a lot longer when you put it into days.

Has anybody run across an easter egg like there was in the Outlands map?

That's the main reason leveling a horde toon is so much quicker than alliance (especially 1-60)
Alliance flight paths and travel hubs are just poorly located, or either clever enough to allow for long /afk's.
Average time to get to level 70 on an alliance toon is almost 2 days more /played, and i had to narrow it down to lack of flight paths or just long flights. Lets not mention boats.....
