Figuring out how to get this quest on an alt after skipping the intro is one of the most frustrating moments I've ever had playing this game. Blizzard is usually good about breadcrumbs and unlocking things like this, but not this time.

I am not sure what's needed before this point, but the quest that finally gave me the chain to get here was Get Your Bearings

Hope this helps someone down the line!

AS OF 2024: (For Alliance)
To get to Zandalar and do not have this quest available on your ship but still want to follow the breadcrumbs in the "right" way.
- approx time to complete: 5 minutes

Get to level 10 and then;
1. Talk to the NPC next to your Hero's Calling boards to find the quest to start the BFA Campaign: Tide's of War.
2. After meeting the council and spending countless minutes in RP you'll need to meet Jaina at the docks.
3. Talk to Jaina at the docks and let her know you've heard this all before and skip the intro.
4. TURN ON LOW LEVEL QUESTS and talk to Taila, she should be right in front of you on the dock, and follow the quests:

5. Choose your first zone to set up a foothold (on the war table) - the hand in will popup in your quest log, giving you a new quest from Halford called "[Your Zone Here] Foothold".
6. Talk to Halford to start off the RP where he explains his battle plans (if you don't hear anything or can't see the dialogue do not fear, it only lasts about a minute.
7. Talk to the Ship Captain Grand Admiral Jes-Tereth and set sail (at the rear of the ship just up the stairs) and hand in the quest to Brigadier Thom just inland of the beach.

Congrats, you can now come back to the ship captain whenever you want to jump over to Zuldazar. Hooray!

Need to get back to Boralus?:
8. Head over to Daria Smithson at 40.4 71.0, and ask her to take you back to Boralus.

Hopefully this saves you from time wasted googling. :)

- Edit1: Spelling.
- Edit 2: Added in port back to Boralus.
- Edit 3: Updated description.
