IAD Redeye
Hi All,
I am really perplexed as to why VX has reduced the evening departure from LAX-IAD to three days a week. That flight was full virtually every time I was on it. Is it equipment shortage? Or were the load factors just not supporting a daily departure. Very disappointed - as it seems every time I want to book it home it is on a day they do not fly.

So, in essence, the answer to your question is "yes, equipment shortage".
