I use Flightradar24 to follow the contrails over our house here in UK. The sky is practically empty from flights to and from USA and Europe.
Even local flights are few and far between.
If it wasn't for the military stuff out of RAF Brize Norton nearby, doubt if we would see a dozen planes a day.
Spooky!
