A United Boeing 777-200, registration N768UA performing flight
UA-1873 from Sn Diego,CA to Washington Dulles,DC (USA), was climbing out of San Diego's runway 27 when the crew stopped the climb at FL230 advising ATC they were currently troubleshooting an issue with the right hand main landing gear, the gear was confirmed down and they were working with maintenance to find an option to get it up. About 30 minutes later the aircraft continued the climb to FL310 but diverted to Denver,CO (USA) where the aircraft landed without further incident about 90 minutes later.
A passenger reported the captain announced the landing gear did not uplock, however, there would be a normal landing. The landing was uneventful.
A replacement Boeing 777-200 registration N211UA reached Washington with a delay of about 3:20 hours.
