Typical allowable travel expenses are those incurred for attending conferences, giving invited talks, and working with collaborators at other institutions. Be aware of the daily maximum rate allowed for hotels. For air travel, generally, you should book the lowest available, non-stop flight. International air travel paid through a government grant will likely require use of a US carrier.
