An airline is offering to refund the cost of a holiday if it has to be cancelled because someone in the group is made redundant.
Flybe, Britain’s biggest regional airline, which had 7.5 million passengers last year, is making the offer to boost flagging sales.
Many families are delaying booking their annual holiday because they fear that their income could fall. Flybe’s guarantee on bookings for flights, car hire and hotels applies to those made this month, for travel before October 24. It is available to anyone who has been in continuous employment with the same employer for at least two years.
The group said that it was providing the cover in response to the economic pressures people faced and the high levels of job insecurity.
Mike Rutter, the company’s chief commercial officer, said: “These are unprecedented times and Flybe wants to do our bit to keep the economy moving. That’s why we’re introducing our completely free redundancy cancellation cover.”
