What if the cost of mileage exceeds airfare?
Reimbursement will be based on the “most economical and direct form of transportation” which can be the airfare rate rather than the mileage reimbursement rate. Travelers are often reimbursed according to airfare rates although they are driving to their destination. When travel by car is requested, current airfare rates should be checked in order to determine the reimbursement amount.
