I will try to be as neutral here as possible

Focusing on the pros for each airline [areas where one is better than the other]

Alaska
  • 3 course meal on Hawaii flights with a snack before the meal and warm nuts after.
  • Boardroom access
  • Better legroom [seat in front of you does not recline in your space]
  • Smaller F cabin compared to DL's 757s which means more personal attention
  • Better tray table [no need for the "sticky" paper]... My drink does not slide down towards me
  • More underseat storage space than DL birds with AVOD due to equipment box
  • Tablecloth napkin
  • Winged Headrests
  • Better all-around customer service [none of that "Thank you for calling Delta, we are busy, so please call again later" baloney]

Delta
  • Full PDB!!!!
  • Seats padding is better [specifically the lower back area]
  • More recline
  • Might have AVOD [AS has DigEplayers]
  • Hot Towels after meal service
  • In-seat Power

AS is better on transcons and Hawaii flights than Delta IMO.
