Has anyone done all 3? (Delta, United, American)

If you had to make a choice which would you go with and why? Keen to hear comparisons

TIA
 
I've done DL and AA; DL I had to pay for C+, on AA as a oneworld Emerald I got complimentary MCE.

I was more impressed with AA - IMHO the F&B and space experience was better than I have had in recent years with QF.

Ability to get MCE always helps! Was your AA flight on the 787 or 777?

All else being equal, at the moment I'd tend to DL as it has 777 in economy with 9 across - which is bound to be more comfortable than 9 across on AA and UA's 787s, unless you have the ability (or willing to pay for) the seats with extra legroom at the front of the cabin on the three carriers.

789 ...

I travelled Easterly 10 days ago.

The service was:
-Hot Towel
-Beverage
-Lunch& Beverage
-Beverage
...
-Beverage
-Mid Flight Meal
...
Hot Towel
-Beverage
-Breakfast

I'm 183cm and leg room was ample; inner aisle seat. Stocky middle seat mate bumped me a bit. I'm not sure if an extra 1" (as on the 77W) width would have made much difference.)
