Emirates is the world's largest user of wide-body jets, including Airbus A380 superjumbos and current-generation Boeing 777s.
Turkish Airlines (THY) (THYAO.IS) burst onto the show's agenda on Saturday with word from state-run Anadolu news agency that it was in talks to buy up to 355 Airbus jets.
Following more talks, industry sources said the airline could announce at least part of the deal on Monday.
However, speculation of a large Dubai order for narrowbody jets from the region's newest player, Saudi Arabia's Riyadh Air, as early as Dubai is premature, other sources said.
