British Airways pilots will strike for three days next month after their union said the latest pay proposals from the carrier are insufficient.

Members of the British Airlines Pilots’ Association will walk out on Sept. 9, 10 and 27, the labor group said in a statement Friday. Balpa had been considering its position since mediated talks with management at the state-backed Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service ended last week.
