If you have it written in advance, you can post it from the airport on day of departure

If at this point the airline still refuse to pay, then will need to start proceedings.

For now, unless there is another service with the desired class you wish to rebook on, just sit back and wait
Okey, so even if i know that I'm downgraded i need to wait until after flying this leg? Okey so if I write a complain on a word document, print it out and hand it over at the check-in or the Emirates ticketdisk at the airport?

So at this time there is nothing I should do? They cant come afterwards and say: Well you accepted the downgrade because you flew with the ticket? Can I maybe claim it when I'm in DXB airport on a 4,5 hour layover?

No other flights are available unless I change date, witch I can't. Thanks for all the help!! Im just so worried that i dont get the compensation so i get to exited to contact them and get it worked out.... I mean we talking about a lot of money!! If there is as you say, I wait and see
