The Concorde was an airplane created to travel at incredibly high speeds between 55,000 and 60,000 feet. The plane was said to have checked all the boxes including aesthetics, design, twice the speed of sound and luxury and they provided luxury service that was tailored to the traveler. The Concorde was the first turbojet powered supersonic airliner with a tailless body, curved leading edge wings for high-speed efficiency and structural benefits as well as a droop nose that lowered for landing and more visibility for take-off. The Concorde entered service in 1976 and shaped the industry massively as it rose to fame in no time and became the talk of the town due to how fast and luxurious it was; however, it came at a cost of $12,000 for a round trip. The Concorde was in service for 27 years, however, this ended on October 24, 2003, due to excessive running costs, high fares, and loud noise and flying restrictions that only allowed them to fly over the ocean as flying over other areas would shatter the glass of buildings in residential areas. The Concorde shaped the tourism industry when the disaster of the Concorde crash occurred in France in 2000. The crash resulted in the loss of all passengers and crew onboard and the aircraft could not recover from public relations and a decline in the travel and tourism industry, and it finally came to a halt in 2003. This positively impacted on the travel and tourism industry as the aircraft could travel at a speed of up to 1,330 miles per hour, which is twice the speed of sound and allowed a 7-hour flight from New York to London to take under 3 hours. Due to the journey time being reduced by more than half the time, passengers could arrive at their destination much faster, and the flights could arrive and depart faster. The Concordes could accommodate between 92 and 128 passengers at a time, with the flight times being double the speed, this also doubled the number of passengers flying. The more passengers travelling via the Concorde, the more income the Concorde was making and the more successful it was becoming in the industry. With the flights having such a high cost of $12,000 which equates to $66,000 today, there was a large income for the Concorde, however, this was not making them enough profit. Due to the cost of running the aircraft and them not making enough profit, future changes couldn't be made, which had a negative impact on the travel industry. The aircraft created a lot of noise pollution which reflected badly on the travel industry as well as the high fares being off putting for the customers and resulting in less people travelling on the Concorde as they did not want the pay the price, even though they were provided with luxury service. The Concorde also came with excessive costs and consumed over 6,771 gallons of fuel which exceeded the profit that the flight made. This impacted the environment negatively due to carbon emissions as well as the economy of industry as a result of the expense of the fuel and high operational and maintenance costs. Overall, the Concorde drastically reduced travel times and raked millions of pounds of sterling for British Airways that went into the travel industry which benefited the industry for the better however, the negative impacts caused a downfall in the industry and in its economy.
