I have searched UA DEN to LAX, IAH, EWR and cannot find where the plane goes from DENVER. Anyone know if it deadheads or is a revenue flight?

It flies from DEN-EWR on 10/10 as a non-revenue training flight.

I thought they were using it for the Broncos charter flight. They play the Jets on the 12th, so the timeline of the DEN-EWR-DEN turn makes sense, and I think 1825 is their flight number.

10/20 iah-lax?

That would fit into a trip I probably have coming up, but there seems to be a gap in IAH-LAX 787-9 flights from Oct. 17th through the 20th, after which that flight picks up. Is that something that might be fixed in another week, or should I book a flight without two connections the way normal human beings do?

Sadly, it looks like Saturday's putative inaugural flights have, at least for the moment, been re-assigned a 788.

Hmm for the moment it's still showing a 787-900 on my reservation, but 787-800 on flight status.

If you go to seat map though it is listing it as a 787-900, the actual layout is a 787-800.

Let's hope it's a scheduling glitch of some kind

Looks like 20-Sep UA1086 IAH-LAX may be being equipment swapped as well. Perhaps UA Insider could enlighten us.

I saw 3 787s at IAH yesterday, but I couldn't tell from the distance if they were 8s or 9s.

From what I'm hearing from my source at UA, it looks like at this time these flights will be operated by the 788 due to a maintenance issue on the one and only 789......very disappointing....
