- Vehicles
The Knight Bus- This was an excellent example. A special, magic bus, it could leap whole oceans at a time.
The Weasley Car- It WAS a normal car… until Mr. Weasley bewitched it to fly. Eventually, it escaped and ran wild in the forest.
The Beauxbatons Carriage- The one in the Goblet of Fire pulled by giant whisky drinking horses
Sirius Black’s Motorcycle- Hagrid rode this at the beginning of the series
The Hogwarts Carriages- These were pulled by Thestrals, which were creatures invisible to those who had not seen death
2. Brooms
The Firebolt- This was Harry’s broom. He was probably the best with this kind of travel.
3. Magical Animals
Dragons- such as the one Harry, Ron, and Hermione freed from Gringotts
Hippogriffs- such a Buckbeak
Thestrals- These weren’t fun to ride if you couldn’t see them, for it felt like you were riding air
4. Floo Powder
You throw it in the fire, and you can travel through the Floo Network. Of course, all that spinning made Harry kind of feel like he had the flu.
5. Portkeys
Designed to look like trash, once you touch them they can take you to other places.
6. Apparition
This is the ability to disappear and reappear suddenly on will. Harry didn’t like the feeling of being squeezed when he was going through it. And this method is very dangerous, for you can “splintch” yourself if you’re not careful and leave half of your body behind…
Which one of these methods of travel do you prefer? I wish I could ride on a unicorn, but Harry never did that.
