Actually, you were right.
The technique is called "ghost running." The only thing you need to remember is to log out before rezzing.

You're chained to the spirit healer closest to your corpse, until you log out.

So, for example, if you wanted to have an Alliance alt toon in Booty Bay to check the neutral AH for pets/recipes not available to your faction, you make a human, run out of the starting zone, and get killed. DON'T rez at the spirit healer in Elwynn, just either run in ghost form south thru Duskwood and Stranglethorn Vale, or detour west to Westfall, then run directly south over the water to the Booty Bay harbor. Check your map so that you don't run over water that fatigues you, and in about 5 or so minutes, you'll be down by BB. Run to the entrance, and there's a Spirit Healer right outside. LOG OUT!
Log back in, and voila, you're there without having to corpse hop your way down, a process which could take hours.

This is also great for low level toons getting the Winterspring flight point when you pick up the Moonglade flight point during the Lunar Festival.
