After waiting (im)patiently for a few weeks for the last two flights to post, a missing mileage request was quickly actioned and my account online now shows lifetime elite status. This is #3 for me - one for each major alliance. Woohoo.

That's a phenomenal achievement, especially considering how quickly you reached the last two alliance lifetimes. I will be happy if I can achieve one LT top tier elite status.

Congrats on the 3x lifetime statuses! You're so far head of me it's not funny - I'm a massive 13.9% of the way to lifetime *G on OZ, and a similarly impressive 10.7% of the way to lifetime OW gold on QF.
I can tell you're impressed...
I'm interested that you liked the business class seats on CZ's 787 so much. They're the same that LO has on their 787s, and while spacious, I didn't feel there was any great benefit to all that space. I also found them very hard in bed mode. I far prefer NZ's BP suites, especially for sleeping.

Onboard my seat was occupied as someone had decided they liked my seat better The crew didn't want to move the passenger to their proper seat so I ended up taking their seat. Of course they had put their carry on above their seat so there was no space for mine, which ended up in a closet.

Then the other passenger got away with this behaviour, and next time,
with someone else, will do this again.
In other words, you have reinforced the behaviour.
Had you insisted, the FA would have given over and moved him/her.
