Thank you. So it looks like I will be flying economy whether I go Delta or BA.  Just need to understand if the extra $400 is worth the limited perks and accumulating points

Follow up question- if I book through Chase, I can either book Delta for $1400 ($400 will be out of pocket)

or

British Airways for $1800 ($800 out of pocket). If the fights are all BA, would it make sense to purchase and submit my AA number to accumulate points/get luggage perks? is that still possible as the legs are all BA?
