They may charge Concorde like fares but again the A380 will never fly you at Mach2+ for the duration of your fight like Concorde across the Atlantic.

Time is precious. Also, people still say to me, "Oh, the Concorde [remember most Americans say that] was small, wasn't it cramped?" To which I say, "Who needs fold-flat beds and such on a flight of under four hours?

Sacralige the Whale Jet is using Concordes class sign R or Rocket Class while nothing about the Whale can be described as a Rocket!

Apart from looking like a Discarded Shuttle external Tank with wings and Engines fitted!
