Education & public-sector travel

Travel for universities, school districts, state agencies, counties and courts, booked the way your policy and your auditors expect.

Public money comes with rules, and our Athens, GA corporate travel agency was built around them. Much of our work is for universities, school districts and public agencies here in Georgia, and we understand the paperwork that comes with every trip.

Who we help

  • Universities and research centers: faculty and staff travel, visiting speakers, conferences and research trips, including international work.
  • K-12 school districts: professional development, conferences, competitions and student groups.
  • State and county agencies: day-to-day staff travel that follows policy and holds up to review.
  • Courts and legal offices: travel for witnesses and experts, often on short notice, with dates that move when the schedule does.

How we make it easier

  • We book inside your lodging and meal limits, including the FY 2027 per diem rates that start October 1, 2026.
  • Invoices include the details your finance office needs, like department, PO number or grant code.
  • For trips booked for someone outside your organization, like a witness or a guest speaker, we coordinate directly with the traveler so your staff doesn't have to.
  • Group trips follow a clear timeline with deadlines for names, approvals and IDs. Here's the timeline we use.

International research and study trips are covered by our international travel support, and larger events by group and meeting travel.

Common questions

Can you follow our state or institutional travel rules?

Yes. Send us your policy and we'll book inside it. When a trip can't be booked within the limits, we tell you why before anything is purchased.

Do you book travel for people who aren't our employees?

Yes. We regularly arrange travel for guest speakers, visiting scholars, witnesses and experts on behalf of the organization paying for it.

Can you handle last-minute trips?

Yes. Short-notice travel is common for courts and research teams. Call us and we'll get started right away.
