Unless I am looking wrong it looks like this flight is xld on Feb 5 also. just checked flt status for Wed and it shows xld.

What going on in PEK or is it expected weather here in EWR?
Most of UA "staff" are contractors from CA - there are 1 or 2 UA supervisors/GS agents in United uniform.

back to the situation - my guess is it's an IT/web glitch due to the 4 digit flight number, which are not typically used for international flights.
