Introduction The Traveler's Aid is your guide to assure that you are in compliance with
the travel rules and regulations of UTSA and the State of Texas. It is the
responsibility of the traveler to follow these rules and regulations to the
best of your ability while traveling on University business. Failure to be
aware and comply with these rules and regulations may result in
non-reimbursement of travel expenses. The rules and
regulations covering travel reimbursement are from several sources.
The University of Texas at San Antonio is governed by the State of
Texas Travel Regulations Act, the General Appropriations Act, by Rules
& Regulations of the Board of Regents, and by official interpretations
of the Travel Act as made by the State Comptroller of Public Accounts.

to airport security check-in.
- If you change your travel plans while on the road, notify a coworker of
the revised schedule.
