I'm another one of those who took advantage of the incredible deal via InsideFlyer subscriptions this past summer (and BTW QF confirmed for me on 12/17/02 that we can still use QF points for Concorde travel).
I highly recommend it and suggest plotting your travel for low loads (I flew JFK/LHR on Sept. 11, 2002 and there were only 27 of us onboard, including Pierce Brosnan). On the way back (October 7, 2002) the plane was packed because of BA's offer to upgrade anyone who paid Club Class fare - and a packed Concorde is nowhere near as much fun! Instead of enjoying every second, I actually found myself just wanting to get out into the "fresh" air of JFK.
Remember to ask for any freebies - they no longer give out presents like Concorde playing cards, leather portfolio, etc., but you should be able to at least get a Smythson stationery kit that includes your Concorde certificate (with a nice pen you can ask the captain to sign your cert with).
Be sure to get to LHR early enough to enjoy the lounge (a bar that serves cocktails AND smoothies and remember you're also welcome in the First and Club Class lounges so feel free to check those out too) and don't miss the spa downstairs where you can get a free facial or massage.

- get there any way you can and enjoy it!!!!
