IAD-LAX was proposed but never started.

Given the "monetization" thrust, I'd choose another carrier because my company specifically restricts us to "cheapest available ticket".

There's plenty of traffic IAD-LAX, including UA, AA, B6, and VX (and maybe someone I've missed). WN dropped their flight from IAD-SoCal.
