I don't see what this is supposed to accomplish. Every flight is going to test positive, so then they're right back to screening individual passengers.

Maybe try to encourage/enforce pre-flight checks..

Identify emerging variants maybe?

This is certainly useful but not quickly actionable. While testing incoming travelers maybe only reduces spread by 10%, that could be a meaningful number if your health system is falling over, as appears to be happening in some regions now.
