I would also look to see your likely destinations and whether one airline might be a preferred option ( ie with some status ( or through an affiliated credit card) you might get preferred seating, luggage, priority boarding all of which helps a little). One airline programme may not cover all destinations but might cover a lot.

Also a Kindle/tablet with downloaded books or movies with good noise cancelling headphones may be of benefit

I have the CSR so Priority Pass which is pretty useless flying out of LAX given the layout. I could be loyal to one airline but then I can't buy based on optimum time or non-stop necessarily.

Centurion also wouldn't really work there. Gotta use the Kindle more! Maybe use the flight as a time to log off and read, good idea.
