Lufthansa Seat 2k in first class available on Expertflyer but not on lufthansa site

Hi,

I've booked a first class flight and I've noticed that expert flyer list the window seat 2k as available but it's not when I try to chose my seat on Lufthansa's site. Is it the same as CX where some of the seats are reserved prior to online check in and only selectable by calling? It's the only window seat left and I'd really prefer that

As far I am aware seat 2k on the A380 is blocked until the checking opens. Its the baby seat, ie allows a child bassinet, and remains blocked unless otherwise needed or is released 24 hours prior to the flight.

Sometimes one F seat is blocked but IME not always, call the First class hotline they may be able to assign it for you or explain why it needs to remain blocked.

Expert Flyer is not authoritative source for such information - some people would swear on it, but that's the reality... Still much better than (in)famous KVS Tools.

The F cabin on my LH A380 flight is all open and available, including 2A and 2K.

As far as seats availability, I've often noticed discrepancy between seats which LH site shows and LH mobile app shows.
Seats which show unavailable on LH site, are available on LH app.
