Marc,
    I find the following information on travel times in Appendix C: of ITL 
(page 72)

MAP SCALE
   Each hex on this map measures 12.5 kilometers from side to side.
   Where a route (like the rivers on this map) follows hex-sides instead of 
cutting through hexes, count two hex-sides as equal to one hex.

TRAVEL SPEEDS
   Any small group (mounted or on foot) will travel long distances at about 
the same speed; a riding animal cannot travel at or near its full MA for 
more than a couple of hours without exhaustion.  Use the following rates of 
speed:
   4 hexes/day for normal road travel
   3 hexes/day along secondary roads
   2 hexes/day along minor roads, or across open country or light woods
   1 hex/day through rough terrain or heavy woods
   2 days/hex if cutting through swamp or across mountains
   Travel by air: A large dragon (7 hexes or better) can fly 16 hexes in a 
day.  A Pegasus, gryphon, medium-sized dragon, magic carpet, or Flight-spell 
user can cover 12 hexes/day.  A Gargoyle, small dragon, or bird can manage 8 
hexes/day.
   Travel by water: It all depends, of course.  The riverboats of Dran and 
the surrounding areas usually make 4 to 5 hexes per day downstream, 1 to 2 
upstream.
