Non-essential Business travel is already suspended by most companies.

Who does that leave? People who absolutely must fly — to get home, to perform essential business, for a family emergency, to care for a loved one, etc.

In light of that, I think the low fares are nice.
The true meaning of mileage run is not leaving the airport, just turn back. Bars, restaurant and attractions are irrelevant.
