How do I unlock flying in Legion/Broken Isles?

I see people flying around but none of my flying mounts work.

You will need to complete an achievement called pathfinder. Here is a handy guide from wowhead

Wowhead also has a handy tracker so you can work out where you are in the journey towards flight.

Ok awesome thank you for the response, much appreciated.

The Pathfinder achievements are in the Exploration category, with one for Draenor, one in two parts for Legion, and one in two parts for BfA (although BfA’s Part 2 should be released in the next few months). The meta achievements are also account-wide, but progress towards certain ones will be faction-specific.

Will they ever remove this requirements for new players do you think?

No one but Blizz can say. I personally think it’s unlikely.

:frowning: oh well I guess all the more sweeter after the hard work.

They have been known to lower the requirements for some expansions in the past. Wotlk and pandaren flying come to mind. I could see them lowering some of the rep requirements at some point.

If you have a lot of alts, Getting flying is worth the grind. For just 2/3 toons however, probably not worth the effort.
