Kenya Aviation Strike Ends with Return-to-Work Deal

Kenya Aviation Workers Union called off the strike on September 1, 2026, following talks with the government, Kenya Civil Aviation Authority, and Kenya Airports Authority.

Key terms include immediate payment of agency fees by the Airports Authority, new negotiation guidelines for pay, and a commitment to no retaliation against strikers.

Kenya Airways is clearing backlogs, with normal flights expected by September 2, though some delays may linger as operations stabilize. Officials apologized for the disruptions and highlighted the need for stable airport services to boost tourism.
