This week marks the end of an era in aviation as Concorde goes on it’s last flight.
One of my dreams would be to fly on Concorde just once, well twice as it would be a return ticket of course, but alas that’s just a dream that will never be realised. Mainly because of a price tag of £4,350 one-way and up to £8,292 for a return trip to New York.
I just loved the idea of flying 2 times the speed of sound, and being in 2 places at the same time, because you could leave London Heathrow at 10am and arrive in New York’s JFK some 3 hours later and be in New York City at 10am.
I wonder if another airplane like it will ever be around in my lifetime (however long or short that may be) but in the meantime, Celebrate Concorde while you still can.
