For the most part, yes, two-class (777XA) aircraft fly to and from Hawaii and the US mainland. On occasion, three-class 777s (probably XPs) and even an occasional 744 will make an appearance when loads are really high or there is a mechanical on the scheduled equipment.

Only the 777XP model loses 8AB and 8HJ, dropping to 45 Business Class seats. Both the 777XC and 777XI maintain a full 49 seats. So unless a 777XP happens to pick up the run, you can expect to see a complete Row 8 to/from Europe and South America.
A "catch-all" sticky thread with links to these threads works for me,
wcj1. I too would not like to see a ton of "sticky" threads at the top. I just note most people ask about 777 seating and UA fare codes, which is why I recommended those two for "stickiness".
