Flying across country with empty seats

What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?

Two photographs from my travels during the early COVID pandemic.

Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.

Pictures from both an empty plane across country and also an empty hotel where I was staying during work travels in late March 2020. Despite the pandemic I was an essential worker and therefore was traveling across country multiple times a month during March, April, and June 2020. This flight was San Diego to Atlanta and the hotel was also in Atlanta where I was one of three guests in a hotel with hundreds of rooms.
