Flights

You can purchase your own flight and get reimbursed, but please make sure you are aware of èßäÊÓƵapp policies. èßäÊÓƵapp will not pay for any flight upgrades (business class, exit row, Wi-Fi, early check in, etc.) but will pay for luggage if there is an associated fee. You will need to email Kate Kimmis at kkimmis@smu.edu with itemized receipts showing proof of type of payment (typically the last four digits of the credit card). 

To have Kate Kimmis coordinate it, please email kkimmis@smu.edu with the following: 

• Departure airport
• Arrival airport
• Departure time preferences for both flights (this can be specific if you have chosen a flight or a general time frame)
• Full name (including title and middle name if applicable)
• Gender (male and female are the only allowed options)
• Birthday
• Phone number
• Email address
• Known Travel Number (if applicable)
• DHS Redress Number (if applicable)
• Preferred airline and reward account number (if applicable)

Car Services

èßäÊÓƵapp cannot coordinate rental cars on someone's behalf. Most people choose to use a taxi service (Lyft, Uber, etc.) rather than rent a car. To do this, please collect all receipts for your rides and email them to Kate Kimmis at kkimmis@smu.edu. 

Hotel

èßäÊÓƵapp does not coordinate booking hotels for those traveling from èßäÊÓƵapp. Please do this on your own and submit the receipts to Kate Kimmis at kkimmis@smu.edu for reimbursement.
