Like crewless, zero crew. There isn’t even any flight attendants.
Pilots are just an AI Autopilot and flight attendants are all just robots.

[Pedantry Incoming!]
“Bearing” is a direction from one specified position (i.e. the airplane) to a specified object. You would tell a pilot that there is an airport bearing 180, or traffic bearing 090. “Bearing” just tells the pilot which way something is.
“Heading” is the direction the nose of the aircraft is pointed. If you want a pilot to fly due south, you will tell them to fly a heading of 180.
(Heading is not necessarily the actual direction of flight: it does not take crosswinds into account. “Course” is the word used to describe the direction the plane is actually going.)

That isn’t pedantry. This is valuable information! Thanks for the correction.
