Airline reservations should be booked through Fox World Travel. If booking through an outside source, per University policy:
- Travelers wishing to purchase and make their own domestic air travel arrangements outside the University- contracted travel management company must submit proof of comparable, less expensive airfare (including all airfare-related fees, such as taxes, airport fees, University-contracted travel management company fees, baggage fees, or other costs impacting the comparison) from a reputable travel booking site and note the source of funding to be used for the booking. These comparisons must be completed on the same day to ensure price accuracy. Booking outside of our University-contracted travel management company should rarely occur since our travel management company has a guaranteed price match process.
- International flights are expected to be booked through the University-contracted travel management company. Travelers may book international travel outside of the University-contracted travel management company only when specific, required flights, such as those within an international country, are not available through the University-contracted travel management company.
Contact the NU Travel Office for the process of reserving flights outside our agency prior to reserving any travel arrangements. Lack of timely comparison could result in denial of reimbursement.
