How to pick seats/upgrade on Singapore Airlines/Lufthansa
 
So i have a round trip booked. Flight out is on Singapore metal. One leg of the flight back is on Lufthansa. It wont allow me to select seats for any of those flights. How can i go about doing this? Also, can i use plus points or miles to upgrade on these(1k)? Anything else i need to know?

Thanks.

Depends on ticket, the cheapest SQ/LH economy ticket doesn't offer free seat selection

Lufthansa fare class is M.

you can upgrade with Plus points on the Lufthansa M class if it has a LH flight number. (Not a codeshare flight number)

For LH, you will have to call for seat selection. 1K agent may not be able to help. It may be a long waiting time to call LH. Good luck.

Correct and you would have needed miles (no +Ps).
