RwandAir suspends flights to Kenya

The national airline has issued a statement on its Twitter Wall to apologize to its passengers.

“We wish to inform Rwandair passengers that due to strikes at Kenya International Jomo Kenyatta Airport (JKIA), our flight from WB452 to Nairobi to Entebbe is postponed. Travelers assigned to Entebbe will be put on flight WB434. We apologize for the inconvenience,” reads the tweet.

Kenya’s strike began on Tuesday night. The unions are opposed to a plan whereby Kenya Airways, a loss-making company, would take over the management of Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) airports.

Aviation workers also complain about the hiring of unfair personnel, low pay and the fact that the proposed takeover would put their jobs at risk.
