When choosing an airline to fly with, if you are paying for Business Class, you need to compare who has the best Business Class Seats; American Airlines Vs. Delta Vs. United?
American is investing in its domestic fleet, adding seat power, bigger overhead bins, and high-speed internet at the same time as they’re stuffing more seats in.
Who Has The Best Business Class Seats?
American Airline’s business class seats are currently better than the United or Delta equivalent Business Class seats. This will change as Delta retrofits its fleet with new Delta One Suites. Deltas’ new Delta One Business Class, which is a walled cocoon, can be experienced on its Airbus A350. This new seat will also be rolled out on its Boeing 777. The low doors give a decent level of privacy, although their low height means you will still be able to see taller passengers as they walk past.
In the meantime, American’s direct aisle access fully flat seats are better than the flat seats Delta currently offers. The current AA seat is the B/E Aerospace Super Diamond seat.
It is worth noting that this seat is also better than the Club World seats on British Airways, which are narrow with thin cushions and don’t offer direct aisle access. So if you are traveling transatlantic to Europe, it is worth choosing American Airlines over British Airways in Business Class.
The United Polaris Business Class Pods are laid out in a staggered arrangement in the cabin and offer direct aisle access without taking up more room than United’s older seats. This United seat is a great seat, but it’s not as comfortable or spacious as American’s Super Diamond seat.
You can read my latest reviews of the United Polaris on B777-300, United Polaris on B777-200 and United Polaris on the 787 Dreamliner. Sadly the reality of the United product is not as good as it originally seemed. The planned rollout has slowed, with the new Boeing 777-300ERs being kitted out with the new seats, but United has only retrofitted the new seats into 5 of their existing planes. The Chicago Polaris Lounge was great, but it is the only Polaris lounge that has opened. The new Saks Fifth Avenue bedding is in place for now, but the volume of pillows and blankets is diminishing, and other amenities are slowly disappearing too.
Conclusion
Given a choice, when choosing between American, United, and Delta in Business Class for long-haul flights, American is the best choice. That said, Delta’s new Delta One suites, which are currently only available on their A350 planes, will be a game-changer and make flying Delta in Business a great choice as long as you can snag a plane with these new seats.

American Airlines Vs. Delta Vs. United
American Airlines Long Haul Business Class Flight Reviews
American Airlines, United Airlines and Delta are the three main North American airlines and all three have all recently launched a new, upgraded business class soft and hard product, with improved seats, food and service. We've discussed in more detail which of these new Business Class suites is best. In my opinion, the United Polaris Business Class Pod cabins are probably the best looking of the three seats and the fact that these cabins are complemented by matching ground facilities means that this entire product is more of a complete experience than the American Airlines or Delta offerings.
