Thanks - expecting the self transfer. Blocked a nice 5.5 hours to make it less stressful. Next task is to convince the SO to take the train. I prefer avoiding the M25 as much as possible

Thank you. Good to know on the baggage allowance. We are on separate PNRs, so that extra bag won't apply I think.

If your booking is a through booking on one reservation for IAH-OPO via LHR and LGW then you will get the business class allowance of 2x32 Kg base plus 1 extra piece for OWE on both flights and the person without status will get 2 x 32Kg for both flights
Thank you. Yes it is a single booking from IAH-OPO.

Appreciate the quick responses. ​​​​​​​
