The Kenya Aviation Workers Union (KAWU) called off its strike after reaching an agreement with the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA). The strike had entered a second day, causing significant flight disruptions and cancellations at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) and other airports over unresolved grievances dating back to 2015. Kenya Airways (KQ) had warned passengers of flight delays of up to four hours due to the industrial action. Pilots also raised safety concerns, with the Kenya Airline Pilots Association (KALPA) warning of increased fatigue risks for flight crews due to unpredictable schedules and extended duty periods, which could potentially compromise flight safety. The calling off of the strike followed the deal reached between KAWU and the government.
