When submitting a travel request in InsideCIRES, travelers are required to attach airfare quote(s) when traveling internationally, when including personal travel with business travel, and in occasional cases where the trip requires unique routing.
You can obtain an airfare quote either from the Concur Travel & Expense System or directly from Christopherson Business Travel (CBT).
The Concur Travel & Expense System can be accessed when you log into MyCUInfo.

Once in the Concur system, there will be a search bar on the left side of the page where you can search for flights. (This is also where you can search for and book rental cars and hotels.)

Once you input your search parameters, you will be given the option to select both outbound and return flights. You can ‘Select Fare’ to build the overall itinerary that you plan to book.

Once you have selected the fares for the outbound and return flights, you will then be on the ‘Review & Book’ page. From this point, you can take a screenshot of the flights you’ve selected along with the estimated cost. Please attach the screenshot to your travel request. Do not book your airfare at this point. You can just close out of Concur. You are allowed to book your airfare after you have received travel approval.
