Know any fast ways to get from SW to Outland?

It used to be easy to travel around - you hearthed in Dalaran, and
used portals to travel everywhere.

Those old portals are gone now, replaced by ones to Cata zones in the
capital cities. But there are none to Outland. The only route I know
of is through the Dark Portal in Blasted Lands. This is annoying
enough to get to from Stormwind - it must doubly so for Horde based in
Org.

For Northrend, I use my Argent Crusader's Tabard to port in to the
tournament grounds; Dalaran is just a minute away. There are also
various guild capes that can port me to SW, but I'm hearthed there
anyway, and they have a long cooldown.

Are there any items or routes to get me to Outland easily?

thanks

There's a permanent portal to Blasted Lands at the mage trainers in
all capital cities. Requires level 58+.

D'Oh! How could have forgotten! Haven't used it since the expansion.
Thanks. Still, I'd have preferred something that took me to Shatt.

Every capital city has a portal in the mage quarter that takes you
straight to the Blasted Lands near the Dark Portal. Once through,
you're in Hellfire.

Best, R.E.F.

That's about as close as you get...It's not *that* bad a flight to
shat...few minutes maybe... I get spoiled being a mage and get slightly
frustrated at the decreased mobility when I jump on my other toons. I
actually have to plan trips out around a 15 minute hearthstone. :)

Speaking of portals - on another note, as we did a few raids in Outlands
last night, I opened a portal to Shat from SW. I had to scroll over
each icon to make certain I was picking Shat, as it's not one I use
often. I'm embarassed to say it took me until yesterday to notice that
I can now teleport or open a portal to Tol'barad...sheesh... :)

There's also a rep/TB currency item that can take a non-mage there.

Cool! I've only been to TB a couple of times (as clueless as my first visit
to WG) so this will be handy when I get back into that.

Engineers can make a trinket to take them to Toshley's Station or Area 52
(depending on school) every four hours. It's similar to the one for Azeroth
that take you to Everlook or Gadgetzan, and the one for Northrend that
allows you to select most of the NR zones as a destination. (There's also a
small chance to go to a secret vendor in a Dalaran sewer to buy the combat
dragonling recipes.)

How to teleport to Stowrmind from Darnausses or Exodar free and with
no mage involved?

Get the portal to Blasted Lands, go through the dark portal, look at
the human soldiers running to face the demons and fight them, just try
and see where they are coming from, they are coming from a portal to
stormwind, you can use that portal to teleport to Stormwind.

I use this everytime I find myself in Darnausses or Exodar and want to
go to Stormwind,

I thought that portal was just graphics and not functional. I'm pretty sure
I've tried them (both Alliance and Horde) and they didn't work. How long
has that worked?
