I have found planes to be pretty much of a sameness, with even great differences in the same airline. For economy, try OPODO:

Air New Zealand has been advertising some specials from LAX to London. We flew with them from LAX to Auckland and were pleased with the experience. They have a good amount of legroom in economy, too.

Sanfrankid is talking nonsense. Taxes have nothing to do with the flag on the tailfin.
Air NZ undoubtedly wins.
BA then slightly ahead of Virgin. Apart from anything else, only airlines from countries that drive on the proper side of the road serve a drinkable cup of tea. Only Old Commonwealth airlines understand the importance of providing enough, soundly chosen, free wine.
And United is built on the assumption it's there's to keep its obnoxious staff in a job. In countries - like Britain and NZ - that believe in free enterprise, such hangovers from the Roosevelt era would have been encouraged to go bankrupt, or get bought by someone commercially competent, decades ago.

Being a Kiwi I would have to recommend Air NZ, in my opinion certainly better than both Virgin and BA. Plenty of legroom in economy or you could upgrade to premium economy, the extra cost is not vast.
