They could upgauge it to a 789 and fly LAX-NRT-DEN-NRT-LAX, otherwise I'd say one of the IAD flights to DEN switches from a 739 to the 788

Does anyone have a list of all the UA 787 routes?

Though I guess from a utilization stand point, to fly IAD-Europe you will only need 1 plane per segment because the stage length is 6-8 hours in each direction unlike West Coast to Asia where at least 2 frames are required.
