The Kenya Aviation Workers Union (KAWU) has called off its planned strike following successful negotiations with the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA). This breakthrough resolves tensions that had affected the air travel sector for over two weeks, ensuring uninterrupted operations at KAA-managed airports.

• The resolution was announced on Wednesday night by Managing Director Mohamud Gedi of KAA.
• KAWU had initially issued a seven-day strike notice, citing grievances including the KAA board’s "loss of faith" and poor governance.
• The September 30 strike had been temporarily suspended for two days to allow court-mandated negotiations, with collaborative support from the Ministry of Roads and Transport and the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection.
