How can tour flights comply with social distancing?

Saw this news report and wondered how tour companies can comply with current restrictions? As well as the company in this report I also saw last weekend the R44’s on Panama Beach were busy with their 10 minute tours.

A helicopter sightseeing company that lost five passengers in a 2018 East River crash is setting aside social distancing rules as it offers big discounts to lure customers in the coronavirus pandemic.

FlyNYON, a New Jersey-based outfit that offers doors-off chopper tours of New York City, is running online advertisements that show masked passengers sitting inches away from one another on the helicopters.
