Airport / lounge - I'd tie AA and DL. UA's clubs are always jam packed, B6 doesn't have clubs at all. T5 at JFK is fairly nice, but B6's facilities at LAX are horrible.

Seat - AA #1 , UA #2 , DL #3 , and B6 last. I have a hard time sleeping on DL - I am 6'2". B6 looks like a nice seat, but it doesn't seem to be as padded as the other carriers.

Price - B6 obviously wins hands-down. AA does tend to be the most expensive, especially if booking just a few weeks out.
Interesting considering AA, DL, and UA essentially have the same J seats on this route. The only real difference is in the upholstery. Unless of course we're talking about the DL A330 or 767.
