Unions in Denmark, Norway and Sweden have said they may carry out industrial action in sympathy with striking British Airways (BA) cabin crews.
The unions - which represent airport services staff across the three nations - said members plan to start industrial action on or around 14 April.
They have yet to decide what form it may take, but it could include strikes or delays in servicing BA flights.
BA has been hit by two strikes in a dispute over job losses and pay.
The last of the two strikes by Unite cabin crew members ended on Tuesday, and no decision on additional walkouts have yet been made.
The sympathy action in Norway, Denmark and Sweden is being co-ordinated by global union grouping, International Transport Workers' Federation (ITF).
It said the aim was to put pressure on BA to reach agreement with Unite.
"We and our members intend to resist what has come to look very much like an attempt to break the union," said ITF general secretary David Cockroft.
BA has yet to comment on the possibility of industrial action by Nordic unions.
