1. On the Personal tab of the menu, select Book Travel.

2. At the top, select Round Trip, One-Way, or Multi-City. Enter your From and To locations, along with the departure and return dates and times. Use additional filtering in My Preferences if necessary. Click Search.

3. Select a fare. Fares are categorized by fare family and ticket class and will note trip totals based on the lowest available fare. If more than one fare is available, the fares will be listed for selection.

You will be presented with any lower fare options if they are available. Otherwise, you will be taken to the Shopping Cart.

4. Click Purchase to complete the reservation details. Qualifying flight segments will prompt seat selection, and any additional information required by your organization will be collected prior to completing the purchase. Please ensure that the preferred method of payment has been selected, or add a new credit card to the reservation.

5. On the Purchased Itinerary page, click on Itinerary Actions to email or cancel your reservation.

6. If the itinerary requires approval prior to ticketing, you will receive a confirmation email when the reservation has been approved. Your emailed itinerary will be forwarded to your Abacus receipt inbox automatically, and a suggested trip will be created on your Trips tab.
