The only person I ever met who'd flown on the Concorde was the executive secretary for a startup CEO who had important meetings in Paris. Yes, this was a Dot Com.

I worked for a company that did those sort of things. It was bought by three crooks who then spent a ton of VC money on themselves. Porsches in the carpark and flights to New York on Concorde. Needless to say it didn't last long.

The only other person I know who flew on it was my wife (before we were married).

My Father has flown on it once. It was after the flights restarted following the Air France crash and prices had been reduced a bit.
