Virgin Galactic

Space!  The final frontier...  For those with $200K for a ticket...SpaceShipTwo (bottom) will carry six passengers and two pilots and is much bigger than SpaceShipOne (outline at top), which was flown by a single pilot (Illustration: Virgin Galactic)

That may be  a bit expensive but travelling at over 2500mph sounds really cool!  Not just that, zero gravity too.

I have to say I haven't really thought about these new spacelines before.  However, looking at these images provided by Virgin Atlantic, and reading the experience description on the website here, it certainly seems like something that would actually be worthwhile.  Now they just need to get that pricetag to a more affordable level.
