British Airways pilots have voted in favour of strike action in a dispute over pay, threatening a walkout over the key summer holiday period.
The British Airline Pilots' Association (Balpa) said 93% of its members had voted in favour of industrial action.
A strike would be likely to cause severe disruption, as Balpa represents about 90% of the airline's pilots.
The union said it did not yet have any dates for a potential strike, adding it still hoped that the dispute could be resolved.
Pilots have rejected a pay increase worth 11.5% over three years, which the airline says is fair and generous.
