DGI Travel
DGI Travel (formerly known as Diversity Travel) is the mandatory booking system for business travel of Erasmus University. Dozens of employees are dissatisfied with the service due to its high costs, a user-unfriendly platform, and inadequate customer service.
Because the total travel budget for all employees of Erasmus University exceeded the tendering threshold, it was decided to engage DGI Travel for booking business trips for employees. If staff does not comply, their travel costs will not be reimbursed.
