FLYERS

All airfare must be booked through Egencia and meet the flight parameters

 

​ Any unapproved travel booked outside of Egencia will not be reimbursed (so, maybe don’t do that). This allows your flight to be charged to our travel card and we can view your flight itinerary automatically to arrange transportation.

The flight booking link will be emailed to registered participants by the end of October. If you do not receive the email by then, please let us know.

Plane tickets are non-transferrable; therefore, airfare cancellations become the property of the area employing the person ticketed. Should anyone need to cancel, the mission unit will be charged for the cost of the flight.

 

FLIGHT parameters COMING SOON!
