According to an article in The Wall Street Journal on Sept. 24, the plane will be leased out in the fall.

"United Airlines has been one of the most conservative airlines on the capacity front. Still, some rivals griped when it put a retired 747 back into service over the summer. But the big plane served only as a spare and will be leased to another airline this fall to fly outside of the U.S."
