As we are limited on the budget for the conference, we will not be able to support any fees associated with airline travel (i.e. checked bags, seat upgrades, airport parking). If you are NOT flying Southwest, your airline may charge a bag fee for checking luggage, this is NOT covered by our conference, so please consider packing a carry on for the trip as any fees incurred will NOT be reimbursed. If you need to bring a checked bag on an airline that charges a bag fee to transport special items that are needed like medical equipment please let your direct supervisor know prior to purchasing. Please work with your region to coordinate travel and airport drop off schedules.
Shuttle Service
In order to maximize our funds, a shuttle service will be organized for all participants flying into Dallas for the conference. Please send flight number, arrival time and departure time to the logistics team JaLae Thompson at [email protected]. A follow up email will include additional transportation information. Please do not rent a car or use a taxi/ridesharing service without prior approval, as this will not be a reimbursable expense.
