EK has a good J product. I do the non-stop from JFK, en-route to DEL and find it quite convenient. Lots of flights from DXB to DEL.

I go the other way -- LAX to BKK on UA or TG, then to DEL on TG. UA requires an overnight stop (which isn't such a bad thing), TG does not.
This time of year, UA has 744s with the new business class seats over the Pacific, over the winter they fly the 777 which still has the old seats.
