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

Either :
(a) change to a flight that has 1st class
(b) wait
If , on the day, you end up travelling in a class lower than that which you are ticketed,
then you will be entitled to EU compensation. At this time you have not yet flown in a cabin lower than that which you are ticketed for and so no EU compensation is yet due
As long as you do nothing , then your ticket will reflect the higher cabin and so compensation will become due. If you accept rebooking and a fare refund now, then you may well be due no compensation, so just keep quiet and await the downgrade
Just have the letter written so that you can post it from the airport to Emirates on the day of departure once you have the boarding pass for a lower cabin.
