And I assume with these availabilities the upgrades can be booked at any time.
You're looking at the wrong information as neither of the flights you mention currently has upgrade availability to J.
You need Saver Reward Fares to be available if checking via Emirates website, or "D" Class availability if checking via Expert Flyer.
Upgrades can be booked at any time but availability can also change at any time so snap them up as soon as you can.
