Also for just standard domestic midcon flights, CO has perhaps the best food, etc. Even in coach, CO serves meals on flights like BOS-IAH. Also the CO staff has been helpful to me over the years, even when I was a college student.

Also DL has its shiny new terminal A, which unfortunately I had not been air side in yet. One thing that drove me away from DL in the past was its official corporate "Simply Good Business," policy whihc menat no waivers or favors. However, DL has abandon SGB, so who knows how they are now.

Best of luck!
DL definitely has interesting transcon flights out of BOS and there are shuttle flights to LGA and JFK. I have recently flown BOS-ATL-SAN and LAX-BOS on DL in F ... nothing to write home about. So if you are interested in good service and potentially upgrades, I would choose another airline. The interesting thing about CO is that NW will also give you upgrades (and vice-versa).
A little OT, there is a 'dinner request' for BOS in community.
