The World of Warcraft team has stepped into a thread about players using their new-found ability to fly in the Broken Isles to complete Kirin Tor World Quests. Prior to flight, Kirin Tor quests required precise timing, directed jumps or the ability to stay inside a floating bubble across long distances. Since flying arrived, however, players have been using airborne mounts to complete the quests without any extra effort required.

We haven't decided whether or not we'll make any changes to restrict flying on the Kirin Tor World Quests. We did anticipate they would become a lot easier with flying and, as such, we have no intention of taking action against players who use flying to easily complete these World Quests in their current state.
As some of the more frustrating, if not difficult, world quests, this can be seen as a boon for players. How long it will last remains to be seen.
