One month ago, we launched travel.unc.edu and shared the memo below with you and other key groups across campus. The feedback has been very positive, and we need your help to ensure that all University business travelers know about these online resources.
Please share the email below or the travel.unc.edu URL with all the travelers in your area; we built these resources with them in mind!

Re: Announcing the launch of the new Travel and Expenses web pages
We are excited to launch the new travel.unc.edu web pages, which have a new look and functional navigation to provide an easier way for you to learn about pre-travel and post-travel planning, policy and reimbursement. Today’s launch is the result of months of dedicated work from campus partners, Travel Services staff and the Operational Excellence team.
The new, user-friendly travel and expense pages replace the former travel information web page, so please update your bookmarks, particularly if you use our Allowances guide!
Though the design, organization and travel guides are new, our travel policies and processes are still the same. We just streamlined and organized the information based on requests from University travelers and University staff who process travel.
In addition to new pages dedicated to booking travel, reporting expenses, understanding policy and traveler responsibilities, the campus-wide design team created a Quick Reference Guide and a Travel Checklist that are online and also available as PDFs that you can print and take with you. We encourage you to explore the new web pages for yourself!
