Isn't LH putting the A380 on this run for the summer? Makes it highly unlikely UA would restart up its own flights.

Slim and none and slim has just left town?
With transatlantic ATI, if there is a new entrant for LAX-FRA, I would bet it 0% likelihood that it will be UA, unless DL or AA enters first. Then, UA could act as if they were doing it as a competitive response, when in fact they would be dumping capacity in order to drive down fares.

According to Airlineroute.net UA is flying a 744 and a 777 on the SFO-FRA runs next summer. Although this could change at any time.

UA also downguages other routes in the off season and I am sure that they are using the aircraft where they create the most revenue.
