I have two questions which are sort of intertwined I have a MEL-LAX-JFK-LAX-MEL trip booked, but I just realised the LAX-JFK stopover is only 2 hours. Given I am arriving at the US border during a particularly busy time of the day and have to clear customs, immigration, etc... I'm concerned...

I'm looking at visiting NYC early-mid next year. I have Velocity Platinum and just over 400,000 points. What's the best way to get a business seat?
