UAPremExecFlyee, thanks for your feedback. Yes, I do have to be there at 10:00, so I guess I won't be considering option #1 at all.

Then you will walk to the exit and through immigration. The only lounge you can access is the Welcome Lounge
I read that some showers are located near gates A50 and Z50, which would be on the airside, correct? Is there a way to get from A25 to A50?

UA989 invariably gets a remote stand (V129 or similar) that means a bus to the terminal.
I watched a few YouTube videos of UA flights from IAD to FRA, and they all seemed to get a gate. Of course, a bus would be slower. For some reason, I was under impression that all widebody transcontinental flights would get a gate at FRA. A lot of incorrect assumptions on my part
