Well, if it was a 3-class aircraft, it was a 767-200. Most of the transcons are 2-class 767-300s, which have actual new seats in F (which is really INTL J, but which I prefer to UA's biz seats), versus the 767-200, which might have some new fabric on the seats, but aren't really new in any significant sense.
