Pax will pay slightly more for a faster flight. But honestly, I don't think it's worth it. Some players like to use them later on when they have money to burn, but in the early stages there are far better ways to spend your money.

With Concorde, it is likely that you will earn nothing. You will just lose a lot, even if the Concorde would make some 10-30k/day. But, since the Concorde costs 50 mill., you'll never get it profitable.

Concord earns if you select the right routes and every hour in flight counts. I used to run 4 concordes in Beta 3.  8)

But as Jps said, not profitable if you don't sell after  ;D

Actually they pay *a lot more*. I don't remember exact figures, but default prices were clearly higher than normal, and you could even rise them and still get loads easily at 95%.
But you really need to have a suitable route (about 3000nm long, with good demand in all classes).
If you configure it with lots of 1st and business class seats, you might even get it profitable - but only slightly...

Oh, and D-check is really costly. So if you get any profits, you'll loose them all in D-check...

Yup. D check costs is huge... I read some information about concorde profits in real life and I think that I pass ;)
