Leveling 80-85 methods

but you can get ganked here just as much like you said even if you fly in the air, or your main gets ganked.

The ganking there was nothing like when questing and with what was going on in the rest of the zone. It cost me maybe 1-2 hours total but I eventually figured a few things out: hide the alts in the rocks, don't fly them above, and leave your booster there and log in and check the zone regularly because it varies. My biggest issue was other horde hogging the mobs, not gankers. I frequently shared the area with alliance and as long as we kept to our respective sides, no one engaged. My druid was only ganked I think 4 times total and he was never camped, I just went right back and continued. But your mileage may vary.

So, time lost to ganking here was very minimal.
