We can't give unrestricted flight because it will break mission maps. It would require the content team to go through roughly 4,000 maps and rebuild all of the terrain and collision.
What about new missions with maps designed for flight? Put those invisible walls around areas we're not suppose to go.

Oh, we've certainly talked about that -- the major problem there is people would then complain that they can't use their rocket boots everywhere.

Blizzard had the tech available to create new zones/areas for full flight when The Burning Crusade expansion came out in 2007. It took them almost 4 years (3 years, 11 months) to remake their two original Azeroth continent maps compatible with it.

In comparison, this game has only been released for just over two years.
