"plot holes"

Things that are not plot holes.
Danarys travelling quickly is not a plot hole. She is travelling by Dragon. It's easily conceivable she is able to travel at 100mpH in a straight line. She can travel accross Westeros in a couple of hours.
A group of Whites being alone is not a plot hole. We know very little about the White Walkers, and there is no reason to suppose that there would not be a group which is apart from the main group. Obviously not a plot hole. Just dull imaginations.
The Dragons not targeting the White Walkers. They had only just discovered that the whites will die when the White Walkers had been killed. This information had not been relayed to Danarys, and definitely not to her dragons.
Things that are not plot holes but lack some logic.
The knight King throws at the Dragon which is further away. This is doubly annoying because there was no need for it to be written that way. They could have just made a dragon fly closer to him.
Jon sends a Raven to Danarys. Why? What would this message have relayed? That they were about to be swamped by an army of undead? They had no reason to expect they would be trapped for days on an island surrounded by an army.
Jon remaining on the ground picking off random wights while the rest of them were waiting for him on the dragon. Why?? He had plenty of time to jump on the dragon instead of pointlessly putting himself in danger.
Things that may or may not be plot holes, but are fucking ridiculous.
Uncle Benjamin. So they made Jon get left behind, just so that uncle Benjamin could miraculously come out of nowhere to save him? Why not just have him get on the dragon?
The group of them holding out so long against an army of undead. I mean, really? come on.
I probably missed some.

Well if a bird can fly 70 mph, a dragon which is about 1000 times as big can surely fly 3 times as fast, don't you think?

I was just joking. You know, because dragons aren't real.
I have no problem with the speed of the season though, so what do I care?

Some problems with that expedition: -- Why didn't they bring dragonglass? -- Why didn't they bring horses? The wights had them, and their horses looked normal. -- Why didn't they bring a raven or two of their own? -- Why didn't they bring a Dothraki?
How did Danny know how to find the expedition -- or for that matter, Eastwatch? She's a stranger in Westeros and had nobody with her. (Of course, somebody could have said "follow the coastline until you see the biggest wall in the world.")

They did bring some dragonglass but not a lot and those that were using it were using it like a crude palm blade. They could have fashioned some real weapons first but I guess they went there with the intention of catching one 'alive' so they didn't think that far ahead.
The white walkers' horses were undead (like the bear) but the one Uncle Benny rode in on wasn't so I'm not sure but I would have guessed that horses would not fair well in the below freezing temps and icey conditions (which is also the reason IRL that huskies pull sleds and not horses). They blew a hole in that assumption for Uncle Ben's rescue pony.
It would be hard to keep a captive, and therefore sedentary, raven alive in those temps. It probably wouldn't have made it far.
Dothraki would also have been out of their element but I'm not sure why having one would have made any difference.
I feel like you probably answered your own question.
