Traveling to the conference
TRAVEL BY AIR
If you work on any University campus. . .
Student conference travel is a complicated animal. If you work at any UNO campus - UNO, UNMC, UNL, UNK - as a monthly paid employee, contact the Psychology Travel assistant before you book any airfare.
If you to NOT work on any University campus. . .
Book airfare wherever you can find it cheapest. Make sure you receive and keep an itemized itinerary to submit for reimbursement. The itinerary MUST include the dates traveled, the flight information, and show how the flight was paid for. (A reservation is not the same as an itinerary.)
TRAVEL BY CAR
If you decide to drive, you are required to do an airfare search, screen shot the results, and submit it with your receipts. You will be reimbursed for the lesser amount. This only applies to cities where it would make sense to fly vs drive, or if your destination does not have an airport within a reasonable distance.
EXAMPLE: You decide to drive to Minneapolis. A flight would have cost $350, and driving cost $400. You "mileage" will be reimbursed at $350.
