OK, I would NOT rely on Seatguru for something like that (well, for anything, actually...). I would suggest checking the seat map for the specific flight. Of course it could change. However, I can't help but wonder why DL would have an international plane flying between LAX and MCO? Do they actually use that aircraft to any long(ish)-haul international destinations from either city?
- If Seatguru is wrong, then it's a push: both airlines are in the 38-40" range with regular F seats.
Well, DL is at the lower end (down to 37" actually on many birds), and AA is at the upper end.
But it's definitely noticeable, it can actually be difficult to work on a laptop with the seat in front reclined if pitch is only 37-38. At 40", with articulating seat pans, it's no problem. Though comfort probably more of a consideration on a redeye...
