If you could fly Concorde for about the same price as First, and you were flying 20 or 40 round trips a year, would you really pick First over Concorde (other than for timetable reasons)?

I think we are saying the same thing. My point was that the real Concorde customers would alternate between R and F, simply because F usually made more sense eastbound. I don't think a few hundred quid more or less raised any eyebrows.

Those that no longer have R as an option will probably travel in F, rather than in NCW or WT+, so I don't see a lot of travel expense saving.
