Not just the employees
I appreciate that but at least the customers (or at least those who had return tickets with Primera) have now been given access to agreed repatriation fares that being offered by certain operators and probably have a job to get back to

Norwegian offers repatriation fares to those affected by Primera... - Norwegian

They may also have some protection by virtue of insurance, having used a credit card etc...


OTOH unless the situation has changed overnight crew who were in the middle of a working trip are not being offered these fares/protections.There were reports that there were/are crew members crew stranded at airports yesterday, without access to preferential fares and were struggling to get home...and of course they now have no income stream and no job to come back to.
