Employee Travel Booking and Payment

Direct Travel

Travellers require a profile in the Direct Travel Program prior to booking travel. Once a Direct Travel Profile has been set up, the traveller can assign someone to book travel on their behalf. This person will also require their own profile.

Travellers with profiles are able to book travel for guests under their account.

For billing purposes, a UNBC Purchasing Card is required to set up a profile. Travellers must also have a credit card in their name to reserve hotels and car rentals through Direct Travel, and must pay on arrival.

Visit the Forms web page to apply for a UNBC Purchasing Card.
