Domestic coach fares on UA from IAD to the WC have been and still are great, and I agree on IAD-SEA. I booked one for May a few weeks ago for $260 AI, but that could have been $240ish had I not turned my long weekend into a pseudo mileage run. BWI-SEA has been $166++ for many months until just recently.
