Flew on a refreshed A319 for the first time. I was looking good to try one of the new F seats with the small headrest wings until I got bumped down the list a couple spots for CPU. I ended up sitting in 7A. United still left some room to put a bag under the hard divider but it's extremely narrow. They could have moved the literature pocket a couple inches up and added that to the base. I think this will reduce the people who can store their bags under it. The new LED lighting in the plane and reading lights, and the sideways rollaboard bins are nice. Every seat now has the new IFE that allows BT pairing and has USB-A and USB-C ports. The bulkhead seats have the screen attached to the front divider. I guess DL did one better than UA and put a new futuristic passenger services pod above the seat, but is too easy to push the FA call button. United reduced costs by just replacing reading bulbs to LED which is improvement. Economy seats are fine and appear to have decent padding although upright they seem to lack lumbar, reclining a bit helps.
