Also, even that type of 777 can change - definitely no specific confirmation, but I saw a domestic 777 map loaded on a flight on a different route in March or April - those are the PW 777s that are currently out of service - and again, that farther out so very possible it’s placeholder and will change - but perhaps they are planning to have those in service again? Those domestic 777s are lie flat, but are 2-4-2 in F.

i don’t recall a 757 with lie flats typically flying SFO-ORD and vv. They’ve definitely had 753s ply the hub-to-hubs sometimes, including SFO-ORD, but those fly solely domestic and are definitely not lie flat, but typical domestic recliners in F. Also, I’ve never flown on that aircraft personally, but you mention widebody schedule and then talk 757 - and 757 is definitely not widebody.
Yeah I misspoke because AA only has lie-flats on widebodies. I'm ok with any plane if it's lie flat. I was under the impression that all of UA's 757s had lie flat seats, but looks like it's only the 752. I guess I will try to get the 777 flight which looks like it's still on the schedule as of now; my schedule is pretty flexible.
