Policy Integration

Travel policies determine what flights you can book and what happens when a booking doesn't comply with company rules.

Policy Evaluation

When you reach the Review step of booking, the system evaluates your selected flight against your company's policy rules. The evaluation considers:

Factor	What's Checked
Price	Is the fare within the allowed budget for this flight duration?
Cabin Class	Is the selected cabin class permitted for this route type?
Stops	Does the number of stops meet the policy limit?
Advance Booking	Was the booking made far enough in advance?

After evaluation, you'll see one of these policy statuses:

The flight meets all policy requirements. You can proceed directly to confirm the booking.

The flight violates one or more policy rules, but the policy action is set to warn rather than block. You'll see:

The flight violates policy rules that require manager approval. When you submit:

The flight violates policy rules with a blocking action. You cannot complete this booking and must choose a different flight.

When a policy is violated, the system shows specific messages:

Violation	Example Message
Price	"Exceeds budget by 200,000 IQD"
Cabin Class	"Business class not allowed; permitted classes: Economy, Premium Economy"
Stops	"3 stops exceeds the maximum of 1"
Advance Booking	"Booking made 3 days in advance; minimum required is 7 days"

Your company's booking mode also affects what happens:

Mode	Behavior
Direct Booking	Policy-compliant flights book immediately
Request Only	All flights create booking requests for review
Hybrid	Compliant flights book directly; violations create requests
