| Part I, Line 1a | The Recording Academy has a written policy regarding the circumstances in which first class travel may be used. The organization makes it a practice to routinely use coach or business class airline travel. Additionally, The Recording Academy receives, as part of its sponsorship income, a funded account that may be spent on coach, business and first class airline travel ("barter tickets"). The Recording Academy has a policy to utilize barter tickets first except when travel time, due to layovers, is a burden or if barter tickets do not provide an available flight option that is compatible with the traveler's schedule. The President/CEO and elected officers are permitted to fly first class either using barter tickets or not, although they are encouraged to fly business class, if available, prior to booking in first class. Further, these individuals are also encouraged to use coach class travel for very short trips. Other members of senior management (Vice President and above) are only allowed to fly business or first class if the flight is over two hours in duration. In these cases, barter tickets are the first option unless the itinerary is not compatible with the traveler's schedule. For international travel, the first choice is business class and the second choice is first class for all members of senior management including the President/CEO and elected officers. |
