For field work and other research-related travel (collaborating with researchers at another institution, for example, or projects at a national laboratory or other external facility), provide information about the number of people making each trip, its duration, and other details such as whether you will be traveling by automobile or by plane, how lodging and meals will be handled, how you estimated the travel costs, etc.
In addition to indicating the purpose of the travel as noted above, in the budget justification, indicate the current mileage rate https://www.illinois.gov/cms/Employees/travel/Pages/TravelReimbursement.aspx , the approximate number of miles, and how many trips per year or project period.
Bear in mind that Federal regulations require that all air travel paid from federal grant funds comply with the Fly America Act; therefore, foreign airfare estimates should be based on the use of a U.S. flag carrier (see below for details and exceptions).
The NIH defines foreign travel as any travel outside of Canada and the U.S. and its territories and possessions, or for an organization located outside Canada and the U.S. and its territories and possessions. The NSF includes Canada as a foreign country. Always review sponsor instructions carefully.
