Looking at March 31 and April 1, and the nonstop is not on the schedule. Have others noticed this?
(Did I miss some 10 page long FT thread?)

Is LAX-LHR not operating Easter Week 2016?
This comes up every few weeks with one route or another. Around the holiday periods (particularly Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Years, but also others like Easter) schedules are generally reduced, with some routes canceled certain days. This also happens regionally (I.e. China routes around Chinese New Year). Usually, Some routes into a city are still operating so there is some capacity - for example, for NRT, between Christmas and New Years, ORD/LAX-NRT might not run one day, but IAH/SFO-NRT will, and the next day, it might switch. So you can probably connect through other hubs to get threre - if guess SFO-LHR still runs those days LAX doesn't.
Oh, and it's not limited to UA, other carriers like LH do this as well.

There's a couple days in there it doesn't operate. The schedule also shifts around by hours that time of year.
