ETA Maybe it's not going. FlightAware said that it's scheduled for ORD tomorrow...?
UALCargo corroborates that it's a 664/973 domestic turn for the old bird on Thursday. I suspect a 74C -> 74C swap.

Offtopic: does the same plane fly the full SFO-HKG-SGN? If so, then UA's flight status is showing a 23-minute turn in HKG...which makes me laugh, laugh, laugh...

I'd propose a 973-DO for the last day, but then (a) UA will sub the plane, and (b) I'll be stuck in coach regardless since all of you are 1K. So, no, I ain't even thinking about it.
