Complimentary Premium Plus for Gold & 1K on premium transcon? (No)

Sorry if this questions has been asked, researched and shocked to see I cant find an answer.
Do United Premier Gold & 1K members have access to Premium Plus seats on transcontinental flights at the time of booking?
I know its not available for international but if I fly LAX-EWR as 1K can I select those seats for free? Or is it just Economy Plus?

No just E+, not PP's. Of course you can buy up to PP.

Premium Economy is marketed as a separate cabin (O,A,R fare buckets) from E/E+ on Premium Transcons. You get your choice of any available seat in the economy cabin behind it.

If you happen to get a 777 or 787 IAD LAX or IAD SFO, you can choose those seats as it's not sold as PP. Same applies to ORD flights. EWR is sold as PP, so they're not complimentary.
