The Concorde was a supersonic commercial airliner. However, due to flight accidents the Concorde is no longer in service. The typical cruise speed for a commercial jet is about 0.8 Mach. Of course, almost any plane with sufficient engines and built for speed can dive down and break the sound barrier---but it may not recover from this.

Do bullets break the sound barrier?
YesThe sound barrier is roughly 1100fps depending on altitude. A lot of gun rounds are over the 1100fps threshold. Some pistol rounds are under this velocity. It is questionable if it creates a sonic boom, but the speed of sound is definitely reached and there are rounds that reach speeds of over 4000fps.
