Travel Resources
Transportation
Airline
Alaska Airlines currently is the State Contract Air Carrier that provides a base level price. You must use a State Contract Carrier unless your flight meets one of the following exceptions:
1. You find a cheaper flight.
2. The contract airline does not have a flight that meets your needs.
3. There are no seats available on a particular flight.
4. There is no contract airfare to the particular destination.
You will likely find a cheaper flight with a non-State Contract Carrier, but it is critical that you consult the base level price before you purchase your ticket. You risk not getting reimbursed for the full amount of your ticket if you do not meet one of these exceptions. Find contract airfare rates here: https://finance.uw.edu/travel/airfare#statecontractfares
If you would like to be connected with OR’s state-approved travel agent, please contact Jeff Babauta. The benefit of working with a travel agent is that they are familiar with the rules and regulations and can directly charge ORC’s central travel card (CTA).
Trains
You can be reimbursed for the actual cost of your train ticket.
Car Rental
Check UW’s travel website for details: https://finance.uw.edu/travel/GroundTransportation#CarRental. Note that car rentals have a lot of guidelines.
Driving Your Own Car or Mobile Home
Check UW’s Travel website for the mileage rate: https://finance.uw.edu/travel/GroundTransportation#Mileage
Meals
Meals are reimbursed at a federal per diem rate (domestic: http://www.gsa.gov/portal/category/21287 or foreign: http://aoprals.state.gov/Web920/per_diem.asp) that varies depending on what city/county/country you are traveling to.
Note that travelers will not receive per diem for any meals provided at a conference and/or meeting, regardless of whether or not the traveler actually ate those meal(s).
Lodging
Lodging is determined by the federal per diem rate (domestic: http://www.gsa.gov/portal/category/21287 or foreign: http://aoprals.state.gov/Web920/per_diem.asp) which varies depending on what city/county/country you are traveling to. However, lodging is often more expensive than the listed per diem rate. If there is an applicable exception, as listed on the Travel Office’s website https://finance.uw.edu/travel/perdiem#exceptionstoperdiem, you are allowed to stay in lodging that costs more than the listed per diem. The most frequent exception is that the traveler is staying in the conference hotel (requires documentation).
Allowable # of nights:
– The night before official business: in general, staying the night before business starts the next day is allowable unless business starts later in the day and there is a flight that can get the traveler there at a reasonable time.
– The last day of official business: if there is no way for the traveler to return home by 10pm on the last day of business then lodging on the final day of business is generally allowable.
Miscellaneous Expenses
(General info below, and additional details related to miscellaneous expenses on the UW’s Travel website: https://finance.uw.edu/travel/miscexpenses)
Paying for Trip
Please note that we can pay for your trip with a variety of approaches discussed below:
Per Diem Advance
You may receive travel money before your trip. The amount of the per diem advance is based off of federal meal and lodging rates (administrative staff will sort this for you). However, this option is only available to travelers who will be employed after the date they return from traveling.
Department pays for expenses before you travel
The Office of Research can pay your airfare, conference registration, and certain other miscellaneous expenses before your trip. We are only allowed to pre-pay lodging expenses for students travelers and non-UW visitors coming to UW.
UW Travel Card
Frequent UW travelers may be eligible for a personal UW Travel Card. See the Travel Office’s website for more information: https://finance.uw.edu/ps/how-to-buy/travel-purchasing/itc
Reimbursements
You may pay for your expenses and submit receipts for reimbursement. This can happen before your travel for any pre-paid expenditures or after your travel. OR will process an Expense Report (ER) for reimbursement which will be deposited directly into the back account associated with your payroll deposits. Any item over $75 will require receipts except for daily food receipts which are reimbursed at a federal per diem rate.
