I have 2 flights booked on LH, Aug 20 and Aug 21, flights 499 and 572, respectively. On the LH site, where I choose my seats, the seat map shows the aircraft to be the the 747-8 version 1, with rows 10-11-12-14 in J class. However, the seat map EF provides is for a later version (2 3 4) 747-8 which is lacking those extra J class rows and has replaced them with PE seating.

Anyone know which is the accurate seat map?
It could be that LH isn't correctly publishing the seat map in the reservation systems, because as we noted in our email to you we are showing exactly what LH is publishing for the flight:
