Domestic Investigators are responsible for making their own travel arrangements. Please note that only the most cost-effective economy/coach class travel will be reimbursed. Also, any International air travel booked must be the most cost-effective Fly America Act compliant (https://www.gsa.gov/portal/content/103191), economy/coach class travel. These federal guidelines require that travel be booked with U.S. Flag Air Carriers (basically any airline based in the United States) to the furthest point possible using the most direct or expeditious route, regardless of cost and convenience.

NOTE TO TRAVELERS FROM ELDORET, KENYA: Please note that our Travel Agency can only purchase the roundtrip Nairobi-DCA/IAD/BWI portion of your trip via the Travel Request Form weblink above. The roundtrip Eldoret-Nairobi ticket must be purchased locally, as JamboJet does not accept third-party credit cards. Since this is the case, travelers from Eldoret are required to purchase their own roundtrip Eldoret-Nairobi airfare, and then request for reimbursement for this expense after the meeting (please see “Reimbursement” tab for reimbursement instructions).
