The Athasian elemental planes were played out, had very little energy and they had the grey and black and astral planes. The devastation of the planes matched Athas the links were growing weaker as well so no new Sorcerer Kings could be created the conduits allowing the originals were dead/extinct etc.  Athas was not 100% cut off but things like their Gith got there centuries before and they had a dimensional gate which would let you dimensions and go to other worlds, it was not a mass transit type thing and on ly 1 being had access to it for 2000 years.  And yeah you could not Spelljam to Athas either in the old lore. You could not use planeshift or gate for example to reach Sigil from Athas and vice versa. Wish (maybe), DM fiat and the dimensional gate were about the only way to leave Athas cosmology. See Earth, Air, Fire, Water, City by the Silt Sea, Dragon Kings, and I think Preservers and Defilers of Athas.</blockquote>
