[quote:InfiniTea:MV81MDEzMTUzXzkxNzg4OTExX0QxMzU0RTRE] [quote:Anonymous Coward 75333922:MV81MDEzMTUzXzkxNzg3NTc0X0E2N0NGNDc2] My guess is they're not actually empty. It's probably how the government in cahoots with immigration groups are flying "refugees " around the world. The taxpayers are probably paying the airlines for the service and keeping the airlines subsidized and operating. Probably drugs in the cargo hold too. [/quote] I’ve flown on a number of flights that were deserted. Some across the Atlantic, some around Europe. The thing is, from Belgium, yes, they had a flight full of Africans. Full (to DC). But I’ve sat on plenty more flights that were practically empty, some before covid. [/quote]

Thousands of planes from some of Europe’s biggest airlines have been forced to fly empty planes in order to keep their prized departure and landing times at major airports.
Europe’s second biggest carrier, Lufthansa reports it had to operate 18,000 ‘ghost flights’ over the winter.
Every day, thousands of empty planes are flying around the world, as flight radars show.
