is there an assumption that Boom flights will require a huge premium?

The reduced time in the air with more efficient engines / design could reduce fuel costs and make the travel cost extremely reasonable.

Flying is valuable work and thinking time it’s also often a small proportion of the travel time And the best part . There may be a handful of routes “day trips” from SFO-Shanghai/LHR that this would have even the tiniest chance of making any sense.But cost not important anyway
