Those were last "remodeled" under the old regime when cost cutting was everything. They took out the screens because the had weight and required maintenance (costs) and according to the leadership at the time "everybody brings their own screen anyway." Then when you asked them why no charging ports throughout the cabin so people could actually use the screens they brought onboard for an entire 8 hour flight, they pointed you back to step one --- Reduce COSTS!!!

Unfortunately, those decisions still haunt us, as I doubt they will redo an interior on a 30+ year old airplane. I guess if they do, that will be our indication that those planes are going to be around awhile. As they come due for their next heavy check, it will be interesting to see what if anything "extra" is done.
