I wish they would do that when deporting people. It's bad enough having your life upended. Sometimes sent to a country where you have never been and knowing nobody. Or more mildly, and getting more common, just stuck in a country and wanting to go home, but overstaying a visa because you feel there is no safe way to travel home at the moment. Now imagine being forced to face catching Covid on the flight if you know you're in a high risk category (eg. asthma) but the officials do not care. Some people would give anything to be able to take that "low frequency special flight" you've described.
