Does your department have unused airline tickets/credits sitting out there? When a trip gets canceled, it’s easy to forget that the original ticket might still have a usable value. You may be able to recover some of those funds using the credits before they expire.
When a department hosts a guest traveling to the university and lodging expenses are expected, it is important to work with the hotel you have selected to ensure the room is charged separately from any room service charges/incidentals.
The PSC will no longer be promoting FINE Airport Parking for discounted rates, as we continue to prioritize strong customer service and value for our travelers.
Did you know that Concur, the university’s travel and expense system, regularly sends important notifications to your email box to help you stay on top of your fiscal responsibilities?
Departments can grant travelers approval to utilize an alternate mode of transportation such as rail, bus, or personal vehicle, but only if it does not result in additional cost to the university. University policy dictates the most economical option must be used, so any difference in cost would be the responsibility of the employee.
