An upgrade with cash can be done immediately, but as you've booked through a travel agent you may not be able to do it on the EK website. In addition, there will likely be agency fees to be added.
thanks for the reply! That makes sense. I waded through so many pages on the EK website but couldn’t find anything specific. I’m happy to upgrade through my TA. I was just worried I would have to wait until just before flying and risk not having the seats available.
Thanks so much for your help!
