BOS-LHR-TLV
BOS-LHR is a380
Layover is 1:10.
Flying with children ages 1.5-10
I would like to choose seats in the upper rear cabin but I'm concerned about the connection time.
Is this a legit concern? I can alternatively choose the first y seats downstairs.
How long does it take deplane from the upper deck economy?

Any good source/method for finding evening flights from Europe to NA? I know there are a few out there...

Origin doesn't matter much, but the further west the better (i.e. the TLV flights don't really help me).

Flight from Newark to another state, flying domestic (vs flying International.)

  What's the least amount of time that I can play with and show up before the flight, that will still allow me to fly that flight?
   For example from JFK-FLL, what's the cut-off time to arrive before flight?
 Without checked baggage?
  And with checked baggage?
 
 Assuming every location and every Airline is different?

Security lines are a concern.
JetBlue closes gate 15 minutes before.
With bags most airlines have 1 hour cutoff
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

all depends in the security lines, I’ve waited close to 2 hours in busy season.

+1, that happened to me, we begged the TSA worker to let us go on the business class security line in order to make our flight. I won’t make that mistake again.

What's minimum connection time needed in HKG? Picking up bags and then flying business.

You're going to have to clarify, doesn't sound like you want to hear the actual MCT which is an hour.

how is Ethiopian airlines in general (to jnb if it makes a difference)? and their biz seat in particular (a350-900 787-8 & 737-800)?
would you say that the problems that caused the crash are theirs or boeing's?

Quick Q - sending my two oldest on a flight next week - ages 17 and 15. The 17 year old has his drivers license - what ID (if any) does the 15-year-old need in order to fly?

If it is a domestic flight, neither need ID. Airline policy may differ if they're traveling alone, but I personally don't think they'll need any ID.
Memories last forever, make them while you can.

How do you clear TSA without an ID?
