Norwich Airport air traffic control strike

Overview

Norwich Airport underwent a full 24-hour closure on August 28 following industrial action by air traffic control staff. The strike, organized by the Prospect union, follows a period of “action short of a strike” that commenced on August 17.

The union is seeking a 10% pay increase to match UK market rates and enhanced parental leave, including specific provisions for maternity and paternity leave. The disruption has affected commercial, tourist, and charter flights, with Saxon Air noting that the action has compromised essential offshore helicopter flights for the North Sea energy industry, medical repatriations, and flight training.
