Emirates is also facing the new fuel efficient twins with their long range and their more appropriate capacity taking some of their business by airlines flying point to point. It looks like they are positioning themselves to compete in heavily traveled routes.

This decision is nothing to do with the 737Max. Emirates doesn't fly any 737 variant and has none on order.
