online must be purchased through Travelport.
Travelport Home Page
The State of Wisconsin has awarded a contract for online booking of
airfare to Fox World Travel, Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The contract is
mandatory meaning that all UW business-related air travel booked
online must utilize Fox World Travel’s online booking
product called
"Travelport".
You may continue to use a “brick & mortar travel” agency of your choice
(i.e. Marathon Travel) or book airfare by telephone directly with an
airline.
October 1, 2007
is the official implementation date for this contract at UW Stevens
Point. Airfare that was previously purchased and purchases through
September 30th are not subject to the mandatory contract
requiring the use of Travelport.
The associated costs and benefits of using Travelport are summarized
below:
Cost:
- $7.00 per online reservation which requires no
agent assistance
-
$18.00 per online reservation when agent assistance is required or a
change needs to be made to an existing airline reservation
-
$29.00 if you call Fox World Travel and have them book the
reservation for you - using them as a brick and mortar agency as
