JFK-TLV Have a choice of Turkish J or Lufthansa J?  Which product is better?

What is the best airline for award travel EWR-TLV in either J or F? Not looking for best redemption value, rather best cabin/experience.
Didn't realize EK F would be so hard to book award travel... I have UR, United, and SPG (small amount of SPG-around 25k)-what is the best to book with those types?

As if you'll find availability. I would say LH F if you're looking for an experience, although you'll probably have to book close in so that might not be the best option.

I do have MPE if that changes anything.
