He'd be right. Right now my transcon preference is AA>UA>DL, and B6 sometimes depending on price.

I strongly dislike the DL Vantage seats. They're so narrow. I prefer AA and UA (and DL depending on aircraft) Diamond seats. DL also do some A330 runs to JFK depending on season, and those are super nice.

B6 I'm hot and cold on at the moment; I actually don't like the seat, for many of the same reasons I don't like DL Vantage. But the service on B6 is great, food is too, and free wifi. Compelling package.

If UA gets serious about LAX I'll gladly give them more of my business.
