We've all taken that 15 minute flight from Undercity to Booty Bay only to realise you could've taken the zep to Orgrimmar and the boat from Ratchet.

Or taken the bird from Darnassus to Gadgetzan only to realise we could've taken the boat from Auberdine -> Menethil -> Theramore.

What if we had a button "Let me off on the next stop" or "Turn around please (I forgot something)".

Maybe show a list of all the stops from departure till destination and allow us to select an earlier stop like "can I get off at Thalanaar instead of Gadgetzan please?".

I think being able to choose a new stop mid-flight would be great. I would also like to see them improve the flying times (those beasts can move faster). Better yet, get rid of the damn creatures and install portals.

If you decide you want to get off, just log off while in flight, it will force you to land at the next stop, when you log back in.
A method I used quite often after cliking wrong location.

As much I would find instant FP's handy they'd take away a lot of the flavour.

Thx for the workaround! Didn't know that one yet.

Still, a real solution would be appreciated :)

Hell yeah - like the little button you get on buses the kind that we used ring like mad as kids until the driver would pull over and scream at us :grin:

dont like the instant FP - though... Patience young grasshopper

Flight Paths are there so you can smoke a ciggy (if you smoke.) and put the kettle on.

And have a wee wee break...

God knows I've often used the time on the bird to slip in a little biobreak right before heading into an instance. IRL off course, no need to scare the poor hippogryph.

It would be useful if i could do chores like opening lock boxes, turning motes into primals, etc while i was flying.
