I think its a good idea, we should also do it.

1) Let participants familiar with "the new normal" or whatever long term phase 3 measures put in place on immigration/boarding process

2) Allow those interested a chance to board. Airline can work to provide participants with credits or vouchers to offset future real trip.

3) Look into partnering with airport retails and hotels with packages that offer fake immigration + staycation to boost local tourism sector

And not forgetting Cruise line too can be included and benefits from it

To add a twist, they could even disembark into a themed world such as Star Wars or Westworld.

The lamest thing you describe is coming soon :s13:
Starting from $288, with option for hotel stay. :s13:

Link here

Could even get out-of-work theatre performers and USS mascots to role-play as foreigners and tour guides.

To be serious not practical as we don't have a domestic market.

However, if they combine with further credit/miles ppl may be interested.
For example, $288 flycation and earn XXX miles. The miles or credit earn is more than $288 for further actual flight.

The airlines get the money and lockin a future customer.

you need to have a package bundle to be attractive

eg. After the flight, you transferred to sentosa for a 1 night hotel stay with free USS entry
