[edit] Incidents
- On the 10th of July 2009 a Primera Air Boeing 737-700, registration TF-JXG performing flight GX-362 from Zakinthos (Greece) to Dublin (Ireland) with 153 passengers and 6 crew, was escorted by two Italian fighter aircraft into Rome Fiumicino (Italy) after the crew requested an emergency landing due to a technical problem.Primera Air said, that the crew received an indication, that the slats (leading edge devices) were not in their proper position. The indication prompted the crew to divert to an airport providing a sufficiently long runway for a slats up landing, which was available at Fiumicino. Naples was ruled out because of the terrain around the airport and the runway length.The airplane landed safely on runway 16L and the emergency status was cancelled 19 minutes after touch down
