Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank and JP Morgan all cut their target prices for stock.
In a statement, Goldman said: "We continue to believe that profits will fall on an underlying basis across the group, given a combination of declining passenger volumes (linked to rising unemployment), higher pension costs, higher fuel costs (in 2009/10), lower subsidies and budgetary pressures in the US."
