She didn't think it was possible for this route but admitted she really didn't know. Suggested we check at the airport. Any advice would be appreciated.

A limited number of complimentary bassinets are available for use on international aircraft only.
...
Customers can request a bassinet by calling the United Customer Contact Center at 1-800-UNITED-1 (1-800-864-8331) within the United States or the appropriate Worldwide Contact Center. We will provide accompanying seat assignments for an adult traveling with an infant and up to one travel companion. You can arrange these seat assignments with the United Customer Contact Center or with a United representative at the airport free of charge. Bassinet availability is limited, and these arrangements are not guaranteed, so we recommend requesting a bassinet early for your flight.
Appears bassinet advance reservation is only for International travel but give the above number a call and see what they advise
