I'm not sure what airports or airlines you have flown but our one and only excursion since all this crap began was on American Airlines which we flew from San Antonio to Denver, via DFW. Based on a lot of reports of near empty airports, masks, etc. we felt relatively comfortable. Oh my goodness! San Antonio airport was fine. DFW? Very busy although not nearly as busy as normal but there wasn't enforcement of mask wearing at the American Airlines gate and no real evidence of cleaning either - it was filthy!!! I have pictures of several people with no masks on sitting in the gate area.
They announced at the gate that if you refused to wear a mask you would not be allowed to board and would be banned from all future American flights. Ok....good, right? Nope! Two people without masks boarded the plane and no one said a word. After takeoff, one guy proceeded to pull his mask down, drink a beer, apparently passed out, and slept the whole way from DFW to Denver with his mouth hanging open. No one said a word.
Denver airport was a freaking madhouse with absolutely NO attempts to social distance, wall-to-wall people, masks hanging down around their throats; the tram was literally wall-to-wall people and the same with the car rental shuttle bus. We were so uncomfortable we cancelled our return flight and drove home.
Having said all that, we are flying to Hawaii for 5 weeks because we will never have an opportunity to score 5 weeks at Ko' Olina where I HOPE the crowds are still light even though they are kind of opening back up. We will keep ourselves masked up everywhere, probably bathe in hand sanitizer, and eventually just take some time to wind down after a few pretty stressful years.
My wife flew a short on-way trip in August, we are both flying for a vacation in October and again in December. I'm not worried about the plane or the airport, as masks and other safety protocols are strictly enforced there. I think one is more at risk going to the local Walmart or grocery store. The biggest issue we are seeing right now with air travel is that flights are constantly being changed, direct flights being eliminated, etc. Makes it a bit frustrating.
