Expedia Corporate Travel

Login


IPFW uses Expedia Corporate Travel to prepay airfares and lodging for University employees and guests. Expedia Corporate Travel is the only authorized process for prepaying airfare and lodging at IPFW. Travelers wishing to use other travel services or agencies are free to do so, but must pay their own fares and reservations and receive reimbursements after completion of their trip according to University procedures.

Accounting Services is not a travel agency. We do not have staff to research fares and itineraries for University Travelers. Expedia Corporate Travel allows travelers to build their own itineraries and save them pending approval of their trip according to normal University procedures.

Once Accounting Services receives the approved Form 17 travel authorization, the travel clerk will retrieve the itinerary saved by the traveler and pay for it.
