Supersonic jet to fly from Dubai to London in 4 hours

US based Boom Technology will cut the existing flight time from Dubai to London or Abu Dhabi to Sydney by half when its supersonic passenger jet comes into commercial operation. 10% of routes for Boom supersonic flights expected to originate from Gulf countries, says founder Blake Scholl. The first test-flight of its XB-1, dubbed the “baby boom”, is set to take place next year, will connect the GCC to the rest of the world with flights up to 2.6 times faster than conventional airliners.
