Here it is, shot out of my room window. It was surprisingly routing Everett (yes) - Gander - Vienna - Dubai. Crew presumably found Vienna a good place to overnight. Came back in the evening, it was still there, left just before midnight. It was January, and snowing in Vienna, but probably not so in Dubai ... !
