Various embodiments provide methods, devices, and non-transitory processor-readable storage media for avoiding coexistence interference between radio access technologies (RATs) operating on a multi-active communication device. Various embodiments provide methods, devices, and non-transitory processor-readable storage media to leverage an ability of a multi-active communication device to manage two RATs and/or subscriptions to protect on-demand traffic service performance, such as Multimedia Messaging Service (“MMS”) service performance, when inter-RAT coexistence interference is occurring, or is likely to occur, between an on-demand traffic service, such as a MMS service, and a data service. In some embodiments, an on-demand traffic service may be a bursty on-demand traffic service.
