The news of bankruptcy hit the news late Monday afternoon, suddenly, with the result that hundreds of tourists - clients of the company are unable to go to their homelands.
On Monday evening about 400 tourists, who were to depart from Chania with Primera Air flights, are at Daskalogiannis airport and are looking for a solution to get to their homelands.
