Seat availability first class

Apologies if this has been posted before. I've booked 2 business class seats from Sydney to Glasgow on 1 May EK417 and EK027 returning 20 May EK028 AND EK414. I'd like to pay for upgrades to first but want to make sure there will be the 2 middle seats together. Any way of checking to see what's available without going through actual booking process? Many thanks

It is via the booking process, but before payment, you go through the cash upgrade process in Manage My Booking; you should get seat selection before the final payment and you can see.

Thanks but can't see any way of seeing seat availability and reluctant to put in credit card details

Just go throught the regular booking process for 2 x First Class passengers on your chosen dates/flights and you get to select seats after inputting passenger names. Currently 3 out of 4 of your flights have a middle pair available, with the exception being your outbound EK417

As above, use ExpertFlyer. It's free for checking seats.
