Can I book my luggage on Domestic Flight for my international flight

Can I book my luggage on Domestic Flight for my international flight?
I'm am going from the US to Dubai from Houston, TX. I'm going from Dallas to Houston first (its an independent flight from my International flight) I wanted to know if i can book my luggage fro Houston-to-Dubai flight from the Dallas-to-Houston flight. Or do i have to take my luggage from baggage claim at Houston Airport and book it again for the flight from Houston to Dubai.

It's going to depend on two factors -- whether the domestic and international flights are on the same ticket, and whether the airlines are the same or different. If the flights are on different tickets, then the chances are good that you'll have to claim your bags in Houston and then recheck them onto the next flight. If they're on the same ticket, then the chances are better that your baggage can be checked all the way through from Dallas, but that will depend on whether the flights are on the same airline or not as well. If the flights are on the same airline and were purchased as a single ticket, then it is definite that they will transfer your luggage to the second flight for you. If you're flying on separate airlines, whether they will transfer the luggage will depend on whether those two airlines have interline baggage agreements. If the agreement exists, then your bags can be transferred for you, but if no agreement exists, then you must claim your bags yourself. If your flights are on separate airlines, you'll want to check with them to see whether an interline baggage agreement exists.

If you bought both tickets together and they're on the same itinerary, like on the same piece of paper when you print it out, they should check your bags through. If they're on separate itineraries, in theory you're supposed to collect them and recheck but if you ask nicely at the initial checkin, they may check them through anyway.
3 :
It really depends. Are you flying the same airlines for both the domestic flight (Dallas to Houston) and the international flight (Houston to Dubai)? If you are, you could probably let the airlines know, and they can most likely transfer your luggage directly to the Dubai airport. If you are not flying the same airlines for the domestic and international flight, then you will most likely have to take your luggage from baggage claim at Houston Airport and check it again for the flight from Houston to Dubai. Why did you book two separate flights, instead of just one? Was it cheaper that way? Just curious.
4 :
The airline for your first flight (Dallas to Houston) should be able to tag your luggage so it is transferred to the international flight without you having to collect it in Houston. Just show the check-in agent both tickets. However, call the first airline to make sure they "interline" baggage. Not all airlines will transfer bags, even if your trip is all on the same ticket (ex. JetBlue).
5 :
Definately not!! The USA insist that you collect your luggage and re check it at your final point of departure from the US and collect it and recheck it at your arrival point in the US. The same goes for immigration. It is not too much trouble as usually you collect it, pass through security and drop it off immediately the other side (a few hundred feet between pick up and drop off). The reason being that you pass through customs declaration for international flights, which obviously you dont for domestic flights. Also, the US has different baggage allowance than the rest of the world....watch out for that. (European hand luggage is smaller than US and it is ONE piece). Have fun!!

Continental has one non stop daily flight. Air France has 2: AF033 4.10pm - 8.40am (next day) AF031 9.55pm - 2.25pm (next day) The first one is a bit faster because it's a different aircraft (B777-200 vs A330-200). But generally it's between 8.45 and 9.15 hrs, depending also on winds, routes etc
