So the graph you posted says 20-25% of Aussies were planning (not just wanting) to take a domestic flight within 3 months of restrictions lifting. Extrapolated that’s up to 6 million people, and it’s estimated that 10 million Australians take at least one domestic flight per year. So 60% are willing to fly again domestically straight away
Once travel is unrestricted give it a little while for memory of the virus to fade away and the other 40% will start to come back. Australians are too used to having cheap and accessible air travel as a part of their lives now. Once fears of the virus subside then the demand will return.
As far as the OP and sneezing on an aircraft, literally any space where people crowd together will be at risk.
Will we shun:
Sports stadiums
Weddings
Restaurants
Pubs
Nightclubs
Trains
Buses
Cinemas
Schools
For the rest of our existence?
