>either use the private jet and take 8 hours or for a fraction of the cost take the Boom and be there in half the time.
Or use a slow-subsonic private jet, leave from a small airport exactly when you want, arrive near your destination and return when you want.
Or travel for an hour to major airport, arrive 3 hours before departure to do security, travel supersonically, spend 1 hour getting from the airport to your destination. Have a choice of 1-2 flights/day
It probably needs to be a trans-pacific trip to be worth the flight-time saving.
There might be a small billionaire market for a supersonic trans-pacific capable business jet.
