In the vast majority of cases, flights booked through Corporate Travel Planners (CTP) full service agents or its online booking tool (Concur) cost the same or less than they would through third-party websites. While exceptions may exist, these typically involve unacceptable conditions for business travel, such as nonrefundable fares, “hidden” fees that explain the cost differential, or restrictions that are impactful to meeting the core needs of business travel.
In side-by-side comparisons of total costs, the university has confirmed that fares offered through CTP full service agents or its online booking tool (Concur) are usually comparable or less expensive than those advertised on third-party (reseller) sites.
