** Brokerage reduces its EBIT expectations for Australia's flag carrier by 9% and 4% for FY27 and FY28, respectively

** The revised EBIT estimates for QAN reflects the impact of higher-than-expected fuel prices partially offset by higher ticket and freight revenue, adds Citi

** Qantas is expected to provide a trading update at its AGM on November 6
