The oneworld airline alliance is today (3 February) celebrating ten years since it was first founded.
Members of the group, including British Airways, American Airlines, Qantas and Cathay Pacific, will be marking the anniversary by fitting some of their aircraft with a oneworld livery.
The first British Airways plane with the new design, featuring the oneworld logo on the fuselage in giant bold type, took off on a service bound for Tokyo.
Willie Walsh, chief executive of the airline, said: 'As a founding member of oneworld, British Airways has benefited from ten successful years as part of the world's premier airline alliance.
'Our customers have access to world-class in-flight products, more airport lounges, an unrivalled global network and connections to hundreds more destinations.'
