Only one in four voters supports the strike by British Airways cabin crew, according to an opinion poll carried out in the days before the walk out.
A survey by ICM for BBC Radio 4's Broadcasting House programme, found 60% believe the industrial action is "unjustified" while 25% expressed support.
Young people were the most supportive - 39% of 18 to 24-year-olds offering their backing to 44% opposed - the poll of 1,002 adults across Britain suggested.
The research also found that more than a third (36%) believe it is "unacceptable in today's society" for workers to have the right to walk out at all.
More than half (57%) continue to support the right to strike, it showed.
