Changes to Personal Travel Booking (as of 7/1/2023)

April 18, 2023

Effective July 1, 2023 - No Personal Travel Allowed to be Booked in Concur


Effective July 1, 2023, no personal travel can be booked in Concur or through CBT, the University travel management company, except for the following:

Spousal travel – per policy 41.121 - Reimbursement for Official Travel and Entertainment , a spouse’s travel may be reimbursed, at the university’s expense, if the spouse’s presence has a documented business purpose and pre-approval has been obtained in accordance with the policy. Travel such as this can be booked in Concur or through an agent at CBT.

Booking Business and Personal Travel as one trip – We still allow business and personal travel to be booked as one trip. For additional details on this topic please visit: https://www.ohio.edu/finance/travel/personal-travel

This is necessary for a couple of reasons:

  1. Our contract no longer extends University travel rates to personal travel.
  2. We will be rolling out a Duty of Care program over the summer and to do that successfully, we need to remove personal travel from our University business travel system. More information on Duty of Care will be shared this summer.

If you are interested in discounts associated with personal travel, the University Human Resources maintains an employee discount program through Impact EAP. You can sign up for this program, as well as explore other employee perks and discounts by visiting: https://www.ohio.edu/hr/resources/employee-perks-and-discounts
