Everyone has been expecting them to start discussing first expansion during fanfest.

Why would it be 2.4 talk? Fan Fest will be all about the expansion content, along with Gold Saucer, Marriage system, etc. They are pushing Marriage to 2.45, so it will coincide with November's Live Letter. December will likely talk about 2.48 and have further info about the expansion during the JP Fan Fest.

2.4 will drop in October, just before (or after) NA Fan Fest. I wouldn't worry about the patch being pushed to November, it seems that they have a pretty solid schedule of month 1 (Major Patch), month 2 (.05 Minor Patch), month 3 (.08 QoL Patch), repeat now. Using that logic, it will very likely go like this:

October = Patch 2.4, NA Fan Fest, EU Fan Fest
November = Patch 2.45, Live Letter XIX
December = Patch 2.48, JP Fan Fest
January = Patch 2.5, Live Letter XX
