Seat Maps from Europe Not Avaialable
Flying AMS-ATL in a couple of days and can’t pull up seat maps out of AMS on any flight back to the states. Same for tomorrow and flights out of CDG. Same result in both app and website. Odd.

Seats are under KL/AF control out of Europe (including DL flights) at 48-hour mark (some claim 72 hour, but I'm pretty sure it's 48) -- Choosing Comfort+ on TATL (Delta Gold)

Not odd at all. Flights ex-AMS/CDG are handled by KL/AF. Handoff happens around 48 hours before flight.

Yeah same is true for all AF/KL flights. Till checked in can't see the seat map. You can't even see it/select a seat while making a new purchase if within the T-48 cutoff. You have to wait till checkin to see it.
