Concorde was grounded primarily due to a combination of safety concerns and economic factors. The tragic crash of Air France Flight 4590 in July 2000, which involved a Concorde, raised significant safety issues, leading to a temporary suspension of its operations. Additionally, the post-9/11 decline in air travel demand, high operating costs, and the aging fleet further contributed to its retirement in 2003. Ultimately, these factors made it unviable for airlines to continue operating the supersonic passenger jet.
Concorde was a supersonic passenger aircraft which did not prove to be successful. It met with many accidents. The runway was not enough for it to land. So it smashed into buildings. In 2003 when it landed it caught fire. After that Concorde was never used. It is being displayed in museums in many countries.
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.

British Airways officially stated reasons for ending Concorde flights were increased maintence expense and a decreased number of passengers (partly due to a Concorde crash in 2000, and to the decrease in air travel following the 9/11 attacks in 2001). While British Airways made a profit on Concorde flights, it has been suspected that they became convinced that it was even more profitable to fly the same passengers using conventional trans-Atlantic flights.
Because Brian McFadden was naughty, and Shane Filan told his Dad. Then Brian's dad said "That's it, you're grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded. Go to your room. NOW!" Brian then cried to his room, only to jump out of his window, then onto a tree. Then there was Shane. Shane had a gun, then shot Brian. Brian McFadden died.
