I've checked DXB-BKK seat maps on Expert Flyer for next couple days, and they all look almost filled up.

Anyway, on our flight there are 6 seats already selected at the upper deck (I guess people bought them before that change, when upper deck was available), but now all other seats show as blocked.

So I wonder will I be able to select it at check in? And how actually this check in works with connecting flights? Lets say, I check in for our first flight (BXH-DXB) 48h before flight, will I be able to check in/select seats on our second flight (DXB-BKK), which is 10 hours later than our first flight (and it will be more than 48h)? Or will I need to check in twice - 48h before first flight, and then 48h before second flight?
