Somebody on here recently described Concorde as "peak boomer" which was a comment that changed my opinion about it. Yes, it hit some local maximum for what can be accomplished with protractors and a three-person crew on the flight deck. Sure, it brought Phil Collins to the US to perform a concert "before" his UK concert on the same day. It also rattled a lot of windows in its flight path. Right now, everybody else is wondering if they will be boarding a 737-"fuck it, we'll fix it in a software update"-MAX.
If there are any decadent flights I'd like to take from seeing YouTube videos, it would be one on Etihad's "The Residence", but even that doesn't exist any longer.
