Yes. Comercial entities paying other commercial entities to launch their payloads is a profitable industry, where have you been the past few decades?

Do you mean a spaceliner specifically, OP?

It's probably unrealistic because people want cheap transportation more than they want fast transportation.

This is a good point, we might actually see jet engines disappear in favor of turboprops again.

Would you put up with your flight taking an extra hour if it meant it cost 30% less?

Not realistic if you do a mean estimate. That doesn't mean its not possible.
