Tips for Smart Traveling
  • Use your CMU Business MasterCard for most reimbursable travel expenses (e.g. hotel accommodations, car rental, airfare). The use of your Business MasterCard will provide enhanced travel information assisting CMU's efforts to learn whether additional cost saving opportunities can be achieved.
       
  • Review and consider whenever cost effective, Saturday night stay over, purchasing airline tickets at least two weeks in advance and the departure airport selected.
       
  • Utilize CMU programs that direct bill per minute charges back to your departmental cost center for telephone and Internet services.  When traveling: Faculty and staff members may take advantage of toll-free access (1-888-454-2224) to CMU’s modem pool from anywhere in the United States.   There is a $0.05 per minute charge for the service on all calls.  These charges will be billed back to the faculty or staff member’s department or specified account number.  For information about using the service, please contact a representative in the IT Service Center by calling (989) 774-3091.
