It is traveler&#8217;s responsibility to follow all internal travel approval procedures prior to making trip reservations.<\/p>\n<p>Out of state trips will most often include airfare as the mode of transportation. If another mode of transportation is being considered for a trip when air transport appears to be the most economical or logical, review <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/planning\/planning-individual-travel\/determining-the-appropriate-mode-of-transportation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Determining the Appropriate Mode of Transportation<\/a> prior to making arrangements.<\/p>\n<p>When planning a University business trip all travelers must determine the necessary date for arrival to allow sufficient time to prepare for the business to be conducted. \u00a0Actual business travel dates, supported by documentation, are used to determine what can (or cannot) be paid or reimbursed by the University.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><div class=\"col-md-3 cfct-block\"><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3346,"featured_media":0,"parent":3462,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/275.3602.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3548","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","cfct-can-haz-build"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3548","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3346"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3548"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3548\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15424,"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3548\/revisions\/15424"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3462"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wisconsin.edu\/travel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3548"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
