Search and book flights with policy and budget compliance
Flight Booking
Search for flights, compare options, and complete bookings while respecting company travel policies and budgets.
Booking Flow
- Search - Enter origin, destination, dates, passengers, and cabin class
- Select - Browse results, filter by stops/airlines/price, choose your flight
- Travelers - Assign travelers from your directory or delegated travelers
- Review - See policy evaluation and total price
- Confirm or Request - Complete booking directly or submit for approval
Policy Integration
Every booking is evaluated against your company's travel policy. The system checks:
- Price - Is the fare within budget limits for this flight duration?
- Cabin class - Is the selected class permitted for this route?
- Stops - Does the number of connections meet policy limits?
- Advance booking - Was it booked far enough in advance?
Based on evaluation, you'll see one of these outcomes:
| Status | What Happens |
|---|---|
| Within Policy | Book directly |
| Out of Policy (Warning) | See violations, can still book |
| Requires Approval | Creates a booking request for review |
| Blocked | Must choose a different flight |
Click on the policy status during review to see exactly which rule matched and why.
Booking on Behalf of Others
If you have delegation access, you can book for other users:
- Select the user in the "Booking for" dropdown before searching
- Their travelers become available during traveler selection
- The booking is associated with the delegating user
When Bookings Become Requests
Your booking becomes a request (instead of instant confirmation) when:
- Your company uses Request Only booking mode
- The flight violates a policy rule with Require Approval action
- Budget enforcement requires approval for over-budget bookings
Requests are tracked in Booking Requests and you'll be notified when approved.
