Emirates Aircarft parked up at DXB

There appears to be a lot more than 'usual' EK aircraft sitting on the stands and C stands than would normally be seen.

Why is that?

Several services cancelled (as per previous thread) due to poor loads, so aircraft flying less.
Maybe we'll get leave next year. But no bonus I'd say.

Ok it was like a ghost town the other day, I have never seen so many aircraft parked up by EK, my initial thought was there must have been another accident and the airport is closed but not so...

Looks like an accident but those Boeing chaps call them landings.
