Participants take selfies in the cabin during a mock trip abroad at Taipei Songshan Airport in Taiwan on July 7, 2020. — Like almost every region, Taiwan has been hit hard by restrictions on international travel imposed because of the coronavirus. Some residents have found comfort in boarding a flight that didn’t take off, just to revisit some memories and plan for the day when they can fly again.
Participants won a lucky draw held online, with each allowed to bring a guest, putting the total number who boarded at 66. As with normal flights, they had to check in, obtain boarding passes and go through immigration and security procedures before being allowed on the plane.“People who want to fly abroad have long been suffering,” said Wang Chih-ching, deputy director of the airport.
The online draw drew 10,000 entries. After taking their seats, the passengers — all wearing masks — were, participated in a pop quiz and were treated to a good luck salute from fire engines that sprayed water. After they exited without the plane having left the ground, passengers were given a demonstration about security by customs officials accompanied by a sniffer dog.
