I then selected PRG and BCN for the same date and received similar results.

I’m assuming this might not be IT issues with BA/EF or a travel agent hedging their bets for a wedding party booking and perhaps it’s a new system to minimise the disruption caused by curtain roulette by portraying the seats as occupied?
No it seems like an EF issue - they are showing all blocked seats (on BA at least) as occupied. This is very unfortunate and combined with no seatmap results within 24hrs has made the product virtually worthless for me, hope it can get resolved but if the airlines do not make the data openly available nothing they can do
