The main trigger was the crash of a Concorde in 2000; all the passengers and crew died. For some years, Concorde had been flying at a loss (even after writing off the huge development costs). After the crash, all Concordes were grounded and airlines took the commercial decision to discontinue the service.
The Concorde stopped flying in 2003.
24 October 2003
The Concorde's specification was to be able to fly non-stop from either London or Paris to either New York or Washington DC. (or vice versa) The ranges are as follows Concorde A 3,690 miles. Concorde B 4,079 miles.

Concorde was able to break the sound barrier by using powerful engines and a sleek design that minimized aerodynamic drag. By generating sufficient thrust and overcoming drag, Concorde was able to reach speeds beyond the speed of sound, allowing it to break the sound barrier.
