Will take quite an airframe to do that on a continual basis.

Not really. It is not impossible but I don’t believe the ticket would cost 3k. The supersonic flight didn’t work because of high cost and due to the fact that actual flight time is not that much a factor in your trip duration nowadays. There is no reason to pay multiple times more to shorten your flight for minutes when you’d spend hours in airports anyway. The same is true and more so for hypersonic flights.
