As for the old FC seats on these plans, they are lie flat and comfortable. Not a lot of storage but much better for sleeping than any current narrow body FC seats.
According to the
UA Fleet Site, UA currently operates 19 777A models (77G/77M) in a 28F "domestic" configuration, with a range of ~6,000miles. There are four 777-200ERs (77O) in the 32F "domestic" configuration, with a range of ~8,000miles.
A four aircraft subfleet is too small to dedicate to city-pairs, so in practice UA uses all of these for domestic and HI routes. Occasionally they'll be seen on US-Europe. Seat maps always show 28 seats, but will change to 32 seats when specific aircraft are assigned to a flight.
