    Well, the good news is since this kind of hypersonic flight is not efficient or affordable, while there are 150k daily commercial flights, these aircraft will probably fly more like 2-6 times daily for their specific wealthy passengers that would pay obscene amounts of cash to save a few hours.

    The Concord only flew 4 times daily at its peak.
