Yes. He started in Lagos on Christmas eve and connected in Amsterdam on Christmas day. It's easier to get on an international flight in Nigeria so I'm guessing that he got on with the explosives there (I don't know). I don't know what security measures were taken in Amsterdam if any. He had enough PETN (Pentaerythritol tetranitrate) to blow a big hole in the side of the airplane. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northwest_Airlines_Flight_253 "Mutallab did not undergo secondary security screening at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam before boarding his flight for the U.S." http://www.theroot.com/views/new-terror-threat

Yes On Christmas day a Nigerian man who was on a plane coming from Amsterdam, Netherlands, to Detroit, Michigan was planning to explode the plane. The man was 23 year old Umar, who is an Al-Qaeda member. Al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for it.

The shortest time I could find on the Qantas website is 24 hours and 5 minutes. Sydney to San Francisco and San Francisco to Detroit. You have a three hour wait at San Francisco Airport for your connecting flight. You might be able to save a bit of time if you can find a connecting flight between San Francisco and Detroit that leaves earlier.
2 :
Are you going to be flying directly to Detroit or will you be making a stop over? I know that from Sydney to Los Angeles is about 13 or 14 hours and then another 5 hours to Detroit. The flight from LA to Detroit can also be broken up with a stop over in another city. I don't have any tips to make the flight seem shorter but it really isn't too bad, especially if you get a flight through the night and will be able to sleep for the majority of the flight.
