Types of Travel
Different resources for travel booking are provided based on the type of travel.
Group Travel Contact Agent
For group travel, trip approval is required. Refer to the Bucknell Travel Policy for information.
Individual Domestic
To schedule an individual domestic trip you may make your own accommodations for transportation and lodging through Concur. Contact an Anthony Travel agent for assistance.
Individual International Travel
To schedule an individual international trip contact an Anthony Travel agent. An agent will help you set up transportation and lodging accommodations. If you are planning a multi-destination trip, it is recommended that you contact Anthony Travel for assistance due to the complexity of international faring, routing and rules. The agent can assure you are offered the best options and review proper travel documentation.
Personal Travel
Concur may only be used for business travel. Individuals who choose to incorporate personal travel with business travel must segregate the costs and provide documentation of the business portion of the trip.
Special Travel Situations
If your trip has a special travel designation, please contact an agent to discuss how to properly book your trip. Special designations include:
- Faculty members on sabbatical or untenured leave
- Students
- Guest travel: Travelers in this category are defined as prospective employees or students, independent contractors, consultants, guest lecturers and visiting scholars
