There's also the restroom issue. JAL's FAs keep the restrooms immaculate, and there are three bottles of lotions and potions in each.

Alcohol choices are much better aboard JAL.

I agree about the snacks. On AA it's as if somebody raided a vending machine. On JAL you can actually get some hot food as a "snack" at any time. AA does have a choice or two for a fuller snack, but the FAs aren't thrilled to serve it and it isn't as good.

You didn't mention the Bose headsets in business class. AA has a slight advantage there.

I have to disagree about the warm nuts because of JAL's dried natto. The nuts I can find in many stores, but that dried natto is impossible to find (except for JAL's own mail order).
