EK Upgrade on 1 sector of 2 possible?

[robolb]

I'm looking to book EK Econ next year SYD-DXB-MAD

I have a few miles on EK but not enough to upgrade the whole route to Biz.

Can I:

1. Make the booking and once done, either as part of the booking process or later, just upgrade the DXB-MAD sector?
2. or make two separate bookings. SYD-DXB and DXB-MAD upgrading the second sector? Given there will only be 2 hours between flights I'm just concerned about the luggage making it to the flight. And I suppose booking separate sectors might cost more?

Any advice most appreciated.

You can upgrade each sector individually. Please see AFF article re this;
