[File, Standard]The Transport Workers Union - Kenya (TAWU) has issued a 21-day strike notice to Turkish Airlines over a stalled Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). Turkish Airlines operates daily flights between Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) and Istanbul, with two departures per day offering 445 seats. Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) announced departure delays at the airport amid an ongoing dispute with the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA), advising passengers to contact their respective airlines for scheduled updates. The aviation sector turbulence follows a strike by KCAA workers that has already disrupted air travel at the country's busiest airport, compounding challenges for airlines and passengers.
