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.

A credit card is required to set up a profile. This does not have to be a UNBC Purchasing Card. 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.

For information on how to create a profile and how to book travel online, please email purchasing@unbc.ca

Travel Expenditures

For approved travel expenditures, employees may use their Purchasing Card, or pay with their own funds and request reimbursement through a cheque requisition.

To claim a per diem for expenses not charged to a Purchasing Card, use the travel claim form listed on the Finance forms page. 
For details on reimbursement, see the Travel Reimbursement Policy
