Your Complete Guide to Flight of the Hippogriff
A magnificent Hippogriff is sitting gracefully in a nest waiting for the wizards and witches to show the proper etiquette, so make sure you keep eye contact and bow your head towards them. Remember, don’t break eye contact until the Hippogriff bows back.
