Airbus is set to secure a deal with Malaysia Airlines for more A330neo jets, potentially announced during the Malaysian PM's Paris visit.

PARIS (Reuters) -Europe's Airbus is close to winning an order from Malaysia Aviation Group for more A330neo long-haul jets, industry sources said on Wednesday.
The parent of flag carrier Malaysia Airlines could announce the deal during a visit to Paris by Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim later this week, they said.
None of the companies immediately responded to requests for comment.
MAG Managing Director Izham Ismail told the New Straits Times last month that the group was evaluating the possibility of exercising options for 20 A330neos, to be followed by a competition between planemakers to add larger Airbus A350s, Boeing 787s or Boeing 777X jets.
In 2022, MAG ordered 20 A330neos and took out options for another 20.
