Clarification on use of direct air services by State Government employees for official tours/LTC
GOVERNMENT OF ODISHA
FINANCE DEPARTMENT
No. 14649 /F, Bhubaneswar, Date 05/06/2026
OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Sub: Use of direct air services by State Government employees for official tours/LTC – Clarification
In pursuant to Finance Department O.M No.33420/F dated 03.12.2024, All India Services (AIS) Officer of Pay Level-14 & above working under State Government are entitled for Business/Club Class by Air for official tour/LTC.
But it has come to the notice that some Government employees, who are entitled to travel by Business Class by air, are undertaking journeys through circuitous routes instead of availing direct air connectivity, particularly in cases where Business Class facility is not available on direct flight. For instance, in cases where an officer is required to travel to a destination ‘A’ and a direct flight is available from Bhubaneswar to ‘A’, but without Business Class facility, the officer opts to travel from Bhubaneswar to Delhi in Business Class and thereafter from Delhi to ‘A’ again in Business Class. This results in avoidable expenditure of Government funds and also leads to wastage of valuable time of the concerned officer due to unnecessary travel.
In order to ensure economy in expenditure and efficiency in official travel, Government have been pleased to issue the following clarification:
“If there is a direct air service available between the place of origin and the destination, Government officers entitled to travel by air shall invariably avail such direct flights for official tours (including LTC). In cases where Business Class facility is not available in such direct flights, officers entitled to travel by Business Class may travel by Premium Economy or Economy Class, as available, instead of opting for circuitous routes”.
