Missing boarding a plane while on lockdown? One Taiwanese airport has an interesting solution: a fake itinerary where you check in, go through passport control and security and even board the aircraft. You just never leave.
Taipei's downtown Songshan airport on Thursday began offering travelers the chance for 60 people to board a plane that is going nowhere.
Around 7,000 people applied to take part, the winners chosen by random. More fake flight experiences will take place in the coming weeks.
The airport is using the event to show off renovations completed while passengers have stayed away, and show people what coronavirus-prevention steps they are taking.
