PE on the 787 is relatively small (35 seats) compared to the other aircraft (46 A330Neo, 48 A330 and 56 A350) so you might stand more chance of getting a desk upgrade for those aircraft with the larger cabin.
Mine is from SEA to LHR on Thursday and it is showing "Aircraft Boeing 787-9". Currently I am in Economy. Was wishing for UC, but I guess it would be expensive even at desk at airport. I would try for PE.
