The travel industry is taking steps to reassure people who avoid booking a vacation for fear of losing their jobs.

In recent weeks, more than one travel provider has announced they will offer "job-loss insurance plans."

Norwegian Cruise Lines will give a cash refund of its typical cancellation fee if passengers who have been employed at the same company for at least a year need to cancel a cruise because they've been laid off.

Jet Blue goes one step further, promising to refund the full cost of tickets.

As you might imagine, the travel industry, like the rest of the global economy, is a mess.

Have you changed your vacation plans or cut back on travel for fear of losing your job?
