Has there been any kind of mint refresh on older A321S?
Just bought mint fare for the first time ever (I know, shocking given how much I used to post here). So, I remember hearing from some people that there might be some kind of mint seat refresh on the original A321S after the A320 reconfig gets completed.
Has anyone seen this? Are the seats still the inflatable mattress that used to get a lot of complaints?

They are in the process of replacing the cushions on the 32S (or at least they were earlier this year). The new ones are similar to the 3NS/3NL in that they are designed by Tuft & Needle and non-inflatable. The rest of the seat hardware is staying the same, including the LTV4 IFE.

The original Mint cushions are all replaced now. No more deflating airbags.
