Brave young people are taking advantage of cheap flights across the country, traveling to places for deep discounts, a move they thought was never possible until the virus crisis canceled schools and crashed the airline industry.

Roundtrip airfare for New York (all airports) to Seattle is $217 for a non-stop ticket on March 11. What a steal! Want to hit up Miami Beach, Florida, this weekend, well, it'll only cost $73 roundtrip. Or what about NYC to San Francisco? Well, it'll only cost a cool $180 for the roundtrip. These prices are ridiculously low and are perfectly explainable: no one (mainly baby boomers) in their right minds are stepping onto a plane as the virus nears pandemic status unless you are a batsh*t crazy college student armed with a credit card and no f*ckings given about the real world. 

Ashley Henkel, 20, told NBC News that cheap flights across North America have allowed her to fulfill her dream of traveling across the country. When asked about Covid-19, she responded, "Whatever."

Like many millennials, we've heard it all, "it's just the flu, bro." Well, is it, are you sure? Not according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, who said on Wednesday the virus is ten times more deadly than the flu and could infect millions.
