Cash Upgrade Econ -> Business

Firstly, thanks in advance.

Five of us flying to DXB this week from GLA, currently booked in Economy on a Travel Agent ticket.

I'm looking to upgrade the tickets using cash. I've phoned Emirates and they said (as I would expect) I have to upgrade via my Travel Agent. Unfortunately, it's not that easy - I've fallen out with the Travel Agent! Would never normally book through a Travel Agent (unless on Business), but that's not the point...

So, a few questions if I may...

1. Do Emirates take over the booking at any point, i.e. T-24, alike other airlines?
2. Do Emirates allow users to upgrade at check in - either online or at the airport?
3. What would you expect the cost to be one-way and return?

Thanks again.
