BCD Travel Will No Longer be a Preferred Travel Agency

November 8, 2022

Effective February 18, 2023, BCD Travel will no longer be a preferred Travel Agency Partner of Harvard. BCD will continue to support travelers who have already purchased tickets with travel dates beyond that time, however, we encourage you to begin using one of our other preferred agency partners to support your future travel needs including guest and/or meetings travel.  Travel booked through one of these preferred agencies provides access to the discounts and benefits negotiated with our Airline partners and Harvard travelers are automatically registered with International SOS. 

 

  • Any unused tickets/credits in the BCD travel bank need to be issued prior to February 18, 2023
  • For questions, reach out to Stacey Clifton, Sr. Manager of Travel, Expense, and Card Services
  • For pricing and additional information, please visit https://travel.harvard.edu/preferred-agencies
  • Please share this information with your Travelers and Arrangers immediately
