They've been back almost 6 months now. PVG, NRT and FRA all are on the Queen of the Skies.

Been there for a while. Always see them parked at the gate and sitting outside the UA Club in the middle of the C Concourse - great close up of the plane 10 feet away from you!

kind of surprised to see an up gauge in winter for PEK (they used to drop IAD-PEK in winter).
