Flying mounts are essential for getting around Palworld, which you may have noticed features a deceptively huge map.
Sure, going from waypoint to waypoint feels like a walk in the park… until you’re faced with the ginormous cliffsides, which turn your little trek to a treacherous journey to Mordor. You can either attempt to climb your way up, or hop on the back of a flying Pal, which can be hard to find in their own right.
Read on for a full list of all flying mounts in Palworld, plus information on which flying mounts are the fastest, and where you can find all of them.

What is the best flying mount in Palworld?
The fastest flying Pal in Palworld is Jetragon. Unfortunately, Jetragon is one of the hardest Pals to catch; it can only be caught during the Alpha Boss fight, and its catch rate is absurdly low. You should also know that its base level is 50 (Palworld’s level cap) and it can only be bred by two Jetragons.
Fortunately, there are a few other relatively quick Pals who you can use on your journey to the fastest of them all. In the early levels, Vanwyrm is the best of the litter — not fast, per se, but faster than the other options. In the middle levels, Beakon and Ragnahawk will really make it feel like you’re flying instead of trudging through the air. These two should be good enough until you reach the late game beasts Frostallion and Jetragon.

Astegon’s Alpha boss location can be a little difficult to find as it is hidden inside the Destroyed Mineshaft. Head over to the coordinates (-578, -415) to find the entrance to the mineshaft and follow the path to challenge the boss.
Suzaku location
Location (Day and Night): Southern Dessicated Desert and Alpha boss location in Dessicated Desert
Element: Fire
Technology level: 40
Saddle materials: 20 leather, 25 refined ingots, 20 flame organs, 40 Paldium fragments

Location (Day and Night): No. 3 Wildlife Sanctuary
Element: Fire
Technology level: 38
Saddle materials: 30 leather, 10 cloth, 30 refined ingots, 25 flame organs, 30 Paldium fragments
This Pal is admittedly hard to find in the Wildlife Sanctuary, as it doesn’t spawn as frequently as some of the other Pals. That said, once you find one, you’re pretty much set until you get Jetragon.
Shadowbeak location
Location: No. 3 Wildlife Sanctuary
Element: Dark
Technology level: 47
Saddle materials: 50 leather, 40 refined ingots, 25 venom glands, 45 Paldium fragments
Just like Faleris, this one is a rare spawn at the Wildlife Sanctuary. You may be better off breeding a Kitsun and Astegon together to net yourself a Shadowbeak.
