Supervisor approval through a spend authorization in Workday is required before booking UNLV business-related travel arrangements.
Airfare
Once a spend authorization is approved, employees should use a UNLV PCard to purchase airfare.
If a UNLV PCard is not accepted by a travel platform, employees should:
- First, try a different web browser (Safari, Firefox, Chrome, etc.).
- Second, contact the airline directly to make the purchase.
- Failing those, reach out to the PCard Office or Controller’s Office for guidance.
Employees should not personally purchase airfare with the expectation of immediate reimbursement, even if a departmental funding deadline is approaching. Reimbursement for airfare and other travel-related expenses will not be processed until after travel is completed.
Short-Term Rentals
To request the use of short-term rentals (AirBnB, VRBO, etc.) for UNLV business travel, reach out to the PCard Office for guidance before booking. Employees who choose to use a short-term rental are not eligible for reimbursement for a lost deposit in the case that one occurs.
Please contact the PCard Office or visit the Office of the Controller's Travel Program website for more information.
