Even more annoyingly, upstairs in CW I had no working at-seat power, and one of the toilets was out of order for a while.

Any clue why they would refurbish/upgrade some of the plane but not the J seats? Seems bizarre...
I am very surprised to hear this. I thought the plan was to fit the new IFE throughout (for the aircraft that were getting the full refurb), as per the 86J aircraft.

And why would they have two types of IFE on the same aircraft? Surely this aircraft couldn't have been refitted...?
