I'll probably book a bunch of BUR/LAX-PDX round trips, though it's not super discounted. They seem to have mostly held the price around $100 each way and are downgauging and will upgauge if there are actually people buying tickets.

I have a flight for the end of may for a wedding that i expect will get delayed & flight cancelled. It was $100 RT LAX-ORD, and it will go back to my wallet anyway. It's probably worth seeing if I can get a deal on my usual holiday travel, though AS doesn't support the destination very well.

Business travel I rarely book more than a couple weeks out, but I'll probably have at least one transcon/month and I try to fly those on AS unless the price is way out of whack with what OAL are charging.

I suspect prices will stay low for quite a while as people are both reluctant to fly and companies are reluctant to ask people to fly. With the status extension, I can start using up some miles instead of buying paid flights once I get through a few more cancelled tickets.
