Air Travel Reservations
flight bookingsOften these agents have privileged rights to discount and special prices that the university negotiates. A number of schools/departments with an internationally oriented orientation have often developed relations with certain privileged providers who already have an understanding of the procedures that this division favours when it comes to travel bookings for employees or undergraduates. Ask your division if such a procedure exists and how to make travel arrangements through these canals.
University has a number of contractually agreed and available ressources that can help make your travel preparations simpler, potentially less expensive and more secure than making a stand-alone reservation. You can find more information in the Arranging for Travel section of the Finance Gateway under Procurement Services. You can find information on air travel bookings, as well as the Fly America Act requirement (for government-funded programs), on the Air Travel Finance Gateway pages.
