Connection at LAX

I am planning a trip to SFO that would require a connection at LAX. Would it be better to take the forwarding flight on AA or on AS?

The layover time for either flight is approximately 70 minutes after my initial flight’s scheduled arrival.

Thanks for all suggestions.

Terminal Locations at LAX:

JetBlue: Terminal 5
Alaska: Terminal 6
American: Terminals 4 and 5

All of those terminals are connected (post-security) via underground tunnels. It takes 5-8 minutes to walk, according to the LAX website.

Choosing American means there's the chance that you won't need to change terminals. But personally, I don't think I'd factor that into the decision-making process unless I had a mobility issue or tons of luggage.

If you have priority pass you could take advantage of the Alaska lounge in Terminal 6.
