TRAVEL NEWS

The University has launched a new Travel Card to facilitate the payment of University travel-related expenses. With the availability of this new card, departments will no longer have the ability to purchase airline tickets using the Ghost Card at the various agencies.. Instead, employees will need to apply for the new Travel Card with which airline tickets and other travel expenses should be paid.

Departments with a need to pay for non-employee travel will need to have the designated employee with this job responsibility apply for the Travel Card so that they may continue to purchase non-employee tickets. Note that tickets may be purchased from any of the authorized agencies using the new Travel Card.
