I got mine !
I am on EK242 YYZ-DXB in Y, spend a day and two nights there, then back on EK 241 in J in seat 23K. I had no trouble doing the upgrade, but then the plane looks very empty, perhaps because it is so far in the future, this is in October. I had to do it now as all my Skywards Miles would expire in August.
I am looking forward to the whole A380 experience.
