The Tu-144 also failed because its commercial flights never had a significant number of passengers. The flights were too noisy and uncomfortable for people’s tastes – hardly luxurious. It only flew from Moscow to Kazakhstan, reportedly because Aeroflot didn’t want to fly over cities and risk another fatal crash that could kill people on the ground.
