Angry passengers caught up in the middle of pilots' strike

Anger flared yesterday at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport as passengers faced the reality of Kenya Airways pilots' decision to strike.

More than 400 KQ pilots shunned work on Saturday, saying the management had refused to address their grievances. Meanwhile, the management opted to rebook the passengers to other airlines. Others were refunded while their counterparts were hosted in hotels.

One such passenger, who was scheduled to be a master of ceremonies at a wedding in Ghana, caused a commotion as KQ managing director and chief executive officer Allan Kilavuka addressed the media about the situation.
