My post is based on my personal experience as we swapped to UA a few weeks back and fly via DEN in the "not so great, but better than this" 777 2-4-2 lie flat.
yyz-iad/ewr-hnl makes for a very comfortable 10hr lie flat seat. Plus it is United's new 767 cabin config direct aisle access.
The 8-across J 777 lieflats plaguing ORD/IAH-HNL are atrocious. (still, however, better than AC Rouge or Omni)
