Is it an outdated seat map?
I think it is an old seat map and does not take account of so-called PE. As for the rest I understand that there will be 'enhancements' (i.e. a few very cheap adornments) to the existing product. AF has already shown itself incapable of a sustained effort in the front cabin. In J look for some very good deals this summer! Looking at the map Y in an AF 380 will surely replace the 77W as the antechamber to hell.
