EU Dragonflight - any f2p access?

After an extended nightmare of trying to reinstall/upgrade/patch WoW programme, found invites to Dragonflight on login with alts. Was busy with real life, but ran some of the (Azeroth-based) intros with three alts. On going back on Monday, these intros were closed, and trying to get an alt on the flight/boat to Dragon Isles got me booted into the sea.

Did manage to get the reagents bag (very useful), but not for all alts, which cheesed me off.

Anyone know if access was just an early glitch/oversight by Blizzard, and if f2p can access any of this content now?

The prepatch quests were available to everyone, but you need to own Dragonflight to be able to enter the zones.

F2p can enter the DF zones on CN sever until January 24, 2023
