I'm not too worried about the journey on the way out as I have over 4 hours in between flights and it is only the last one on the return journey I want/need to drop.

Also, based on their being two record locators are you confident that dropping the last flight from LHR-DUB will NOT have any affect on the tier and miles I'll earn on the VA sector?

Thanks
Your ticket number(s) will be much longer - usually 13 digits IIRC - as opposed to the 6-position alphanumeric record locators (PNRs). This will be somewhere on the confirmation info you received from Orbitz. Though I'd agree with the above poster that it's likely you have a single ticket - but check to confirm if you received one or two ticket numbers.
