Not until some 30 year old billionaire builds concord 2.0 at least.

The first class on a Singapore Airlines A380 is amazing.

Before they decommissioned it BA did a flight from our local airport, most impressive. I would love to see it fly again. Concorde was an impressive machine, but all in all it was a mistake. Was born out of the "faster is better" mentality that transitioned from propellers to jets and also from cheap oil, and lacking those, it was left behind the economy curve. Curently, nobody would pay for the true cost of SST (I think it's telling that military never bothered themselves with SST) and currently air transportation as a business is driven by price. Put in short, there's not enough people whose time is worth enough to pay for SST, and so it's unlikely we ever see SST again. We did that with 1950s technology. We have plans for another called the son of concorde. The total flight time from Brussels to Australia allowing for air traffic control would be four hours and forty minutes. The engines will use liquid hydrogen and the cost of a ticket is estimated to be around $2000. If we brits had Americas funding by god we would have bases on mars by now.
I blame WW1 for ruining everything. 
Just imagine us with todays tech and our 19th century money.

While it maybe incorrect, for me it shall stay with this meaning.
