New Travel Management Program: TravelUVA

As of January 4, 2016, all University employees and guests of the University are able to make travel arrangements using Christopherson Business Travel through their online booking tool powered by Concur or with one of their University-dedicated agents. In addition to the new service provider, the University has also introduced simplified travel, meal, and entertainment policies.

TravelUVA will offer all travelers: 

• 24/7 Customer service
• A customized online tool that incorporates University policy and procedures -- keeps you on track while booking
• No fees for online bookings
• 2% discount on all Delta flights
• An online profile that maintains traveler preferences, credit cards, and reward programs
• The ability to accrue frequent flyer, hotel, and car rental reward program points for personal use
• An automated means to track and apply unused tickets 
• Real time flight and hotel availability 
• 24/7 monitoring of world events with mobile alerts to travelers who may be affected
• Automatic enrollment in United Healthcare Global Assistance travel insurance for faculty and staff

Throughout January, PSDS will be hosting Town Hall sessions to provide more details on the new policies and services the program will offer and drop-in labs to provide hands-on access to the online booking tool.
