Unite union members employed by Dnata at Gatwick Airport have suspended planned strike action over pay, scheduled for April 26-29. The strike would have affected easyJet flights, with the airline implementing contingency plans. The action was prompted by Dnata’s removal of a shift allowance, resulting in pay cuts of £1,500-£2,000 per worker. Unite has accused Dnata of dishonesty in implementing the changes. The suspension allows for a ballot on a new pay offer from Dnata.
