45 | It is ACTE’s policy to use the most efficient and cost effective methods available for staff and Board travel without causing undue hardship and inconvenience on the traveler. (As a general rule, travelers are not expected to have to travel between midnight and 6:00 a.m.). | ||||||||
46 | |||||||||
47 | Use low cost advance airfare ticketing: Staff and Board should attempt to take advantage of low cost advance fares to the fullest extent possible (at least 14-21 days in advance of departure date). Any costs incurred because of changes in flights or itinerary should be justified fully. Changes for convenience of the traveler will not be reimbursed. | ||||||||
48 | |||||||||
49 | Use of personally owned vehicles (POV): A board or staff member may use his/her POV for official travel. Unless specifically approved in advance by the President or Executive Director, reimbursement will be limited to the lesser of: coach airfare, plus airport shuttles, baggage tips and taxis; or POV at the IRS mileage rate plus parking and tolls. | ||||||||
50 | |||||||||
51 | Baggage Fees: ACTE will reimburse board members for the cost of the first checked bag when spending four nights or less, or the first and second checked bags when spending five nights or more, as authorized by ACTE for official meetings and activities.

52 | |||||||||
53 | Internet Access Fees: ACTE will not pay for internet access fees for Board members. | ||||||||
