Well for all but the last two years of the Corcorde's existence there was no TSA or security lines. Also I know at JFK at least the Concorde had it's own private departure lounge called the The Concorde Room(it's actually still there) and it also had its' own private jetway as well. So it was definitely a premium experience all the way around.

that's true of LHR as well, there is a Concorde Room just after the priority security scan lane, and first class or top tier BA pax get invited. the place is insane in terms of 'premium-ness' with the experience being s whole level above the usual BA first class lounges - you'll find the full details on the ba.com site. sadly i only managed to use it once or twice, when my boss guested me in ;(
