Before the lockdown, I planned to travel to visit my family and booked a flight ticket. I didn't know that the flight date was after the lockdown situation. Because I planned everything and bought the ticket already, I decided to stick to the plan and went to the airport. Surprisingly, it was like a ghost town with just a few people. On the plane, there was just 2 more passengers and me who still tried to sit 3 rows away from the other to follow the safety rule. It was quite an adventure!
