A Better Way to Manage Your Travel
Use Our New RESERVATION MANAGER To Book Your
Official Government Travel Reservations Online
Now you can use Reservation Manager to book your Official Government Travel flight and accommodations. It’s easy to create your online itinerary. Login to Travel Manager, create your itinerary and select the Reservations link. This link will take you to the FedTrip ResAssist where you can book your Official Government Travel reservations. You can personally make your travel arrangements or have someone make the arrangements for you. Follow the current process within your activity and use one of the following methods to book your online reservations.
Your first option as a Traveler is for the Preparer to handle all travel arrangements. You, the Traveler, will provide the travel arrangement requirements to the Preparer. The Preparer will initiate an Authorization in Travel Manager utilizing the Itinerary screen. The Preparer creates the travel reservation in Reservation Manager and completes the Authorization in Travel Manager.
Your second option as a Traveler is for the Preparer and Traveler to share travel arrangement duties. In this situation, the Preparer initiates the Authorization in Travel Manager through the Itinerary screen, the Preparer then provides you with the Travel Manager Authorization document name. You will create the travel reservations in Reservation Manager and the Preparer will complete the Authorization in Travel Manager. If you are not a current Travel Manager user and would like to use this option, contact the NAVAIR National Help Desk to obtain a user id and password.
Your final option allows you, the Traveler, to handle all of your travel arrangements. You initiate the Authorization in Travel Manager through the Itinerary screen, create the travel reservation in Reservation Manager and then complete the Authorization in Travel Manager. To create your own travel arrangements you must first attend Travel Manager training, once training is complete you will be granted a user id and password. To schedule training, please contact the NAVAIR National Help Desk.
