Trying to find a positive, at least in the club with only 10 people, and all wearing masks, I didn’t have to listen to yet another boorish cellphone conversation
With NY’s quarantine restriction, it makes sense that there isn’t a lot of travel right now in the area. Until that lifts, I doubt there will be much traffic. Also JFK being heavily international, I’m sure that also massively impacts the traffic. In my travels a week ago I visited MIA, LAX, ATL, and MCO. LAX, ATL, and MCO were all quite busy, in fact T2 at LAX I would consider to be packed with deep security and check in lines and little social distancing. I got the heck out of there as fast as I could, even with my N95 on, I was somewhat uncomfortable.
Surprised you saw an EK A380. I was under the impression they were only going to LHR and CDG at the moment.
