University Travel Hub
What is the University Travel Hub?
The new Travel Hub not only enables self-booking for University flights, accommodation, and rail travel, but also has the advantage of instant booking confirmations and eliminating the need to raise a Purchase Order.
Who is the University Travel Hub for?
The Travel Hub is for travellers to book their travel directly (colleagues and PGR students). The Hub is intuitive and easy to use, like Expedia or other travel search engines! You will find a range of online support and FAQs in the Travel Hub.
It is also for those who arrange travel on behalf of other colleagues, students, or guests. Arrangers will be required to attend a short training session.
We encourage you to go ahead and try the new system, it's that easy to use. If you still have any questions, book into one of our drop-in Q&A sessions.
