Pricewise there's nothing in it in Y, only AA offers F at the right time and that's about 4 times the cost of Y so not worth it IMO.
I can buy access into the DL lounge via priority pass.

Jet Blue would probably be my first choice even though i've never used them, but the flight times aren't great.
I just feel flying AA in coach with no status will be akin to being on Ryanair.
Therefore, I'm erring towards Delta...

Any comments

(oh, to keep it on topic, we connect to a BA flight in BOS )
Don't forget the ability to check your bags all the way through to London from the American Airlines flight. Surely this is incentive enough?
