I believe boom has suggested it would only cut about 30% of the time off, and cost 3x.. not to mention needing to refuel to cross the pacific. :/

- tiahura 2y agoWhat’s Boom’s track record on accurately predicting final ticket prices?
- DanielHB 2y agoI think those values would make it viable for a few routes, but what really matters is long term savings. Like if they can fly supersonic overland and increase fuel efficiency more than traditional sub-sonic jet engines. To me it seems if those numbers can't get better then the endeavor is not going to pay off the investment for the few routes that would be able to work at those numbers.
