Is it possible for travelers to utilize modes of travel other than flying?

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.
