    Seat poacher

    They are just locating the position of the row number markings, so they know where to look. Good idea. People do the same thing when entering cinemas, sports stadiums etc

    Booking 2x Emirates First Seats via Classic Rewards

    Book outbound and inbound separately. Outbound as soon as available, travelling midweek and outside school holidays. Then when the return flight is available, try the same thing.

    Hello, I am a final year BSc student at The University of West London (UK) completing my final year dissertation on the Qantas Frequent Flyer program.

    Would have been nice for the OP to at least followup with a thank you post.

    Qantas Schedule more Evening Departures to North America

    To be fair, NYC is best case. A lot of other east coast destinations (Miami, Orlando, Charlotte, DC, etc) will need a 3rd flight using the routing via Japan. That would add a few more hours. Edit: Miami blows out to 38 hours Whereas from Dallas, you're looking at a lot more 1 stop options.

    Dodging disasters in Korea and Japan

    I can recommend a local Ryokan in the middle of the village that is also excellent: Oyada Furuya. Natural onsens in the rooms, and they do an epic banquet dinner.

    Arriving on QF1 in a LHR and transfer to Aerlingus in Terminal 2

    Looking at FR24, QF1 has arrived late a few times recently. Although it looks like around 60% of time time it lands on or close to schedule. The late ones, have been 8:30, 9:00am ish, which would be a definite misconnect for your scenario.

    Can you see the plane at the gate, or is it a case of a late arriving inbound?
