The Fleet Status site is:
https://sites.google.com/site/unitedfleetsite/
At the site, you can find information about the interior features, livery, etc., for every plane in United's fleet.
To determine which plane your flight will be on go to https://www.cablepick.net/united#
Just enter your flight number, date, origin and destination. Once you do that look in the details tab under aircraft # and if they have assigned a plane it'll say something like #3506 and the type of plane. Once you know that go to the United Fleet website listed above and cross-reference the four digit number against the "aircraft" column under the appropriate aircraft type.
Keep in mind that things change as they get closer and sometimes either they won't have assigned an aircraft yet or it'll be assigned #0 if it's a few days away and they are anticipating aircraft movement.
You may also check the specific fleet variant of each flight at the United Cargo site under "Schedules & tracking". This data tends to be reliable starting 7 days in advance, but is always subject to change.

Can you hint at what the configuration will look like? In the forward cabin the sCO 777's seat 26 lie flats using the sCO BF seat. Bunky and Jose (I think) have mentioned there will be 28 seats.
For my personal flying in 2016, my two goals are to fly on this newly configured 777 as well as on the 773ER. I live on GUM and will not wait for these aircraft to fly here - I'll find them and try flying on them this year. I have heeps of GPU's and RPU's to use this year for this purpose. Please keep us posted. Thanks to all!

N24715 sked to exit INT 2123/17Jan with WiFi/scimitars
N12754 (former Copa) sked to exit MIA 2191/17Jan with WiFi/scimitars
772:
N211UA entered XMN 2175/9Jan
N212UA entered HKG 2137/8Jan
Outside possibility 211 and/or 212 could be getting new Lie Flat seats

With 3 out of 9 HA config 772 grounded (2511/2512 in Mod and 2514 engine overhaul)
UA 218/9 HNL-ORD will be on 3-cabin 772 until 10FEB16
UA 328/383 HNL-DEN will be on pmco 752 until 04APR16
So we can assume 10Feb will roughly be the date a new-domestic config 772 started? or maybe 2514 back flying again, giving 2019 was test flying already.

I would assume it's similar to CO 772 config. J seats are between 1L and 2L doors. Total 5 rows, 2-2-2 across, 1AB seat will exist due to different lavatory locations on pmua 772s (near cockpit), but no 5DE seat due to additional galley space behind.

Keep in mind that even after the last four pmUA domestic 757s are retired United will still have 77 757s in the fleet. That means there will be more 757s than 777s (until all the 77Ws are in the fleet anyway).
While that is less than Delta it is still more than AA (63) will have.

They are not going to do one in SFO but the rest in HKG, just like PMUA IPTE reconfig were all done in HKG as well. 2514 had been laying up in SFO since October of last year, if anything is goiing to be done with the interior, it would have done by now

I've summarized the rumors and what I'm hoping is confirmed on the call below:
-Confirmation of the 42 A319 leases from AirCap with tentative dates of delivery to UA. Previously we had heard 11-25 units with the possibility of a handful of former Spirit units
-Possible announcement of a 30 unit Boeing order for new aircraft. Rumors are pointing to the order consisting of 73Gs
-Confirmation of 6 new 738s, possibly part of the 30 unit Boeing order. Also possible these are used Copa 738s
Confirmation of 6 new 739s, possibly part of the 30 unit Boeing order.
-Confirmation of purchase of additional used Copa 73Gs, quantity unknown
