I had forgotten about the curtains, I am glad they are gone, I hated the way you could end up with a face full of curtain if you dozed off.

Looking at the seats again, it is the armrests which are looking very bald with a lot of the nap of the material worn away, but as you said with fire retardant being the main factor, last quality was not perhaps taken into account as much.
