Airplanes/social distancing

Obviously flights are basically empty right now
But as things get going again will they only allow planes to be 1/3 full or something?
Airlines will never recover.
All this for a virus that has about 0.1% chance of killing your average passenger.
Fragile old people and unhealthy people arent generally flying anywhere as much as healthy people do.

My guess is they will block middle seats for a while.

I’m starting to see a lot of chatter behind the scenes that this virus was purposely released by the global warming crowd in coordination with an insider at the WHO. The data is all there, it’s just a matter of connecting the dots and following the timeline.

Do you know how many fat fricks and old people I sit next to on a flight in the average year?

Yes they will. But it will probably take a few years.
Hell this may force them to be a bit more customer friendly instead of treating flyers like freight.

I heard Spirit Airlines is considering implementing a "social distancing" fee that charges you $250 and requires you to insert a dildo in your arse just so you can get an extra 5 inches of separation from your fellow passengers.

The fact commercial planes are still flying show the whole idea of social distancing is not for our protection or reducing the spread.

Right, because cargo still doesn't need to be flown and there is no such thing as essential travel

You think fragile nursing home patients fly at the same rate as the general public?

A lot less than the proportion of those people in the general public

I think the average 75 year old flies as much as the average person and certainly the average fat frick.

So are we talking about unhealthy people or nursing home residents?

If there was money in treating customers better someone would be doing it. Airlines have historically been a money pit.

Your average regular airplane passenger is healthier than the population as a whole.
