Physically Disabled, Sick, Injured, or Fatigued Travelers. Any traveler who is on authorized travel, and becomes sick or injured, to the extent they can no longer perform the Aviation Authority’s business, may be eligible to continue receiving meal allowances, and other reasonable expenses during his or her incapacitation. This eligibility may extend until such time as the Authorized Traveler is able to continue to perform the Aviation Authority’s business, or return to official headquarters, whichever is earlier. In order to qualify, the traveler must notify the Department Director, Senior Director and/or Chief Executive Officer as soon as possible, but not later than 24 hours after incurring the illness or injury, and receive authorization for continued reimbursement. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, the Aviation Authority may reimburse or pay travel expenses incurred by the physically fatigued or disabled traveler, which are in excess of the travel expenses ordinarily authorized, provided such excess travel expenses are reasonable and necessary under the circumstances for the safe travel of the physically disabled or fatigued individual. Any and all reasonable and necessary expenses being claimed by the traveler must be accompanied by sufficient documentation to justify the expense(s).
