I don't think that's right, Concorde was still grounded in September 2001 following the Paris crash. I was meant to travel to New York on September 15th 2001 with my dad to celebrate his 70th birthday. I'd been hoping the rocket would be back in service by then but unfortunately it wasn't. I did manage to get a couple of F redemptions but of course the flights got cancelled in chaos that followed 9/11.
