My dad got switched to a Concorde once and his reaction relative to his usual 747 (probably) first class was cool to do once but meh. Less space and it got him into London at rush hour rather than having a nice dinner on the plane.
And first class in those days, modulo first class lounge that got turned into more business class seating at some point, was much less comfortable than modern business class much less first class where it exists.
It would be nice if transPacific were faster (though that has its own set of range problems) but I don't find flying business class from the US East Coast to Europe a particular hardship.
