If we're talking about the same flight profile (carrier aircraft lifts

two?

Refinements for even faster turnaround than SS1. A significantly upgraded
passenger cabin, with "comfort" features (like a vomit vacuum system) and
lots of video cameras.

More windows.

I think I'd want to switch from hybrid rockets to a liquid-fueled
system, but that's just my prejudices.
