No charge!

I recently flew AF from CDG to BLR. The old plane had no electrical outlet or USB charger outlet. AF must be in dark ages not to have these when they fly over 8 hrs to a destination. Airbus 330 is a disgrace to aviation. AF should spend some money in updating the interior of these planes.

You are absolutely right. The Dark Ages are well-known for a distinct lack of power points generally, not only on aircraft. I do not think people were all that upset about it, though. They had other things to worry about. Genuinely inconvenient ones.

Which is the exact reason why some reckless airlines such as Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, Singapore Airlines, KLM, Qantas, Cathay Pacific etc. have chosen to operate it.

Why ? Just because no outlets ?

You should check what kind of planes AF send to Caribbean & IndianOcean destinations.

From your other thread :

The plane (CDG-BLR-CDG) was an old Airbus 330 with video screen as small as an iPhone 6 plus and there was no electrical outlet or USB charger.
It indeed deserves for sure to start a new thread for every single point you want to complain about during your flight.
