Flights taking off and landing at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) in Nairobi are facing disruptions beginning Saturday after Kenya Airways (KQ) pilots failed to call off a planned strike, defying a court order.
The Kenya Airline Pilots Association (Kalpa), which draws the bulk of its membership from Kenya Airways, says they will down their tools because KQ management has turned a deaf ear to their grievances.
