Love is in the air! Or at least that’s what the event is telling us, and you have a second chance to bag the original danger flamingo, the Swift Lovebird mount.

The Swift Lovebird isn’t a difficult mount to obtain, but for World of Warcraft mount collectors, this pink bird could easily allude you if you’re not careful. Part of the Love is in the Air special event, if you’re not careful, you might miss this seasonal mount. Here’s how to get the Swift Lovebird mount in WoW.

How to unlock the Swift Lovebird mount in WoW

The Swift Lovebird can be purchased for 270 Love Tokens from Neutral Lovely Merchant during the Love is in the Air event only. These vendors are available in Stormwind City, Orgrimmar, Thunder Bluff, and in fact all major cities. Any place event vendors usually crop up, anyway!

The Swift Lovebird is an Epic pink strider mount that was originally released in 2012, but still comes around every year for players to unlock. It’s definitely an older mount, but with some visual updates to the strider mount model over the years, it’s still worth picking up.

Love Tokens are rewards given for daily quests. These are all love-themed quests that see you doing everything from spraying players with perfume, giving NPCs love potions, and other objectives. There’s also the gifts to faction leaders' daily quests that have players giving presents to everyone from Sylvanas to Muradin Bronzebeard. 

These quests give between 5-20 tokens, so you’ll likely be grinding a few of them before you can unlock your mount. Still, we’re sure it’s some player's idea of a good time to give Sylvanas a Valentine’s gift every day for a week. Enjoy your big flamingo strider!
