As a guideline, the lowest cost method of transportation should be selected.
NBCUniversal (NBCU) has negotiated rates and insurance requirements with certain car service providers. When traveling, only the T&E travel credit card not the Pcard can be used. Anyone without a T&E travel credit card may use a personal credit card and expense the charge back to the company.
Approved Car Service, taxis or Uber are allowed for trips from work in Manhattan to home in NYC (includes boroughs) between 9pm and 6am - if the employee has worked more than 10 hours in the day.
Uber is allowed when it is most economical. Employees may only use Uber Pool and UberX. UberBlack, UberXL, and UberSUV are not in policy and should only be used in emergency scenarios.
Traveling to airports
The NBCU black car services as described on the NBCU website should be used. UBER should not be used for the airport due to its variable pricing vs. NBCU negotiated fixed rates. In the NY Tri-State Area the “Black Car companies” can be contacted by calling 212 664-7433 (212 664-RIDE).
