PARIS, Nov 13 (Reuters) - Abu Dhabi's Etihad is in talks

with Airbus to expand its fleet of long-haul jets with

a potential order for more A350 aircraft as well as the upgraded

A330neo, industry sources said.

If a deal is finalised, the order could be announced as soon

as next week's Dubai Airshow, the sources added.

Etihad, which earlier this year expanded its Boeing ( BA )

fleet, and France-based Airbus both declined to comment.
