You can only select the Express seats in main cabin more than a day in advance of the flight.
Previously I've selected that option when booking through site. But regardless I called today to see if I can be upgraded and they told me it wasn't complimentary because I had booked through a 3rd party. I was told this was a new policy change.

Will try calling again to see if I get the same answer but this was through the silver line.
