Glad Air France is not going for the MAX, as I am planning to avoid them for at least 4-5 years.
I guess it's perspective, since I also have flown on the refurbished A320/A321 with leather eclining seats, USB power in the armrests, etc....which are a big improvement. They do get deployed on some domestic French routes, by the way.

Sure, the older A318/A319 is better than say Lufthansa's offerings (actually, a park bench is better than the LH seats) but the lack of recline at all, tiny armrests and tray tables, etc.... are a little disappointing in this day and age.
