GA taking advantage of this situation?

As we all know, contrary to what they say on the news, the airspace isn't 'closed'. Just that IFR clearances aren't being given in affected areas.

As it's VMC pretty well all over Europe I would imagine the Air Taxi operators and Biz jets that aren't stuck on the ground in Class A airspace should be doing good business. But I'm not hearing that is the case. Why is that?
