Reimbursable airport parking costs limited under new Purdue travel regulations; Real IDs required by October 2020



Purdue's updated travel regulations take effect Thursday (Aug. 1) and indicate that reimbursable airport parking for business travel cannot exceed the cost of the airport's economy parking daily rate.



As an example, economy parking is $9 per day at the Indianapolis International Airport, and that rate would be used to reimburse business travelers for parking expenses. If a traveler opts for a more expensive parking method at the departing airport including but not limited to valet or hourly parking, the additional costs would not be reimbursed by Purdue.



The University's preferred airport parking provider, FastPark & Relax, is less expensive than the daily economy rate. Travelers are encouraged to sign up for rewards and make reservations in advance to guarantee parking at one of the participating locations. A number of benefits include covered parking spaces, on-demand shuttle service between the vehicle and airport with no waiting, emergency car services and 24/7 online access to receipts. The discounted rates are available for both business and personal travel for Purdue employees, though only expenses related to business travel will be reimbursed.



Beginning Oct. 1, 2020, airlines will require travelers to possess and provide identification that meets federal requirements. This identification, known as a Real ID, has a star in the upper-right corner of the driver's license, permit or identification card. Additional information about Real IDs is available on the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles website.



Questions may be directed to Purdue Travel at 765-496-8747 or purduetravel at purdue.edu.
