FT seems to have a new design. Look to the top of the page.

Me too! 
Seat is like LH's. Without the trick, that is! 
Yes, departed on-time an arrived on time.
I came to the conclusion that such policies are not "renegotiation-proof". I've been "punishing" AF for 12 years, albeit at a significant personal cost. I'm not saying this was not the right thing to do, but bear in mind that airlines do take advantage of such phobias/overreactions we pax develop as a result of a (very) bad experience. The current economic crisis (although, ironically, in my case it means more travel
) gave me the excuse to try the cheapest (as opposed to a non-AF) airline/option available out of Paris to my destination. It ended up being a very pleasant experience, although it didn't exactly start under the fairest auspices, actually it was pretty close to a fiasco, as I absolutely had to be in DTW the following day. But it was OK in the end.
Bottomline: Faut jamais dire jamais!
If we start talking about coffee you could have an OMNI "counting" thread on your own

The new yellow / blue FT-design is a bit ... conspicuous...
