Your choice is a no-brainer, take DL.
I just got off this flight (in Y). I generally avoid US carriers internationally as a rule, but I this experience has given me cause for pause. The AVOD is on par with the best I've ever used, the seats were as comfortable as Y seats get, the food was as edible as Y food gets (I particularly appreciated the open snack area), but more than anything the crew was incredible. Aside from a generally positive attitude, I don't think I've ever been on a flight with more water runs throughout the entire night. If I had that experience in Y, I can only assume J will be that much better. While I assume AF will have more polished FAs and service, my experience with Delta was overwhelmingly positive and lie flat vs. angled would make it an absolute no brainer.
