Board of Contract Appeals General Services Administration Washington, D.C. 20405 ________________ August 24, 2004 ________________ GSBCA 16426-TRAV In the Matter of ROBERT GAMBLE Robert Gamble, APO Area Europe, Claimant. Michael A. Novak, Traffic Management Officer, 48th Logistics Readiness Squadron, Department of the Air Force, APO Area Europe, appearing for Department of the Air Force. GOODMAN, Board Judge. Claimant, Robert Gamble, is a civilian employee of the Air Force. He has requested that this Board review various actions of the agency with regard to its travel policy. Mr. Gamble accomplished official travel and was reimbursed all amounts requested. He has asked this Board to review the agency's travel policies. Specifically, he alleges that: 1) The Agency continues to insist that all employees, in all circumstances, must travel the route with the cheapest airfare contrary to guidance in a previous decision of this Board; 2) The Agency has failed to establish "a uniform entitlement for official travel cost comparisons," in accordance with JTR C2001-A2a (June 1, 2001), when no City Pair Fare exists for the origin and destination on official travel orders; and 3) The Agency continues to refuse to recognize alternate destinations as official travel destinations and refuses to arrange City Pair Fares to alternate destinations. The Board lacks jurisdiction in this matter. Board Rule 401 reads, in relevant part: (b) Types of claims. These procedures are applicable to the review of two types of claims made against the United States by federal civilian employees: (1) claims for reimbursement of expenses incurred while on official temporary duty travel; and (2) claims for reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with relocation to a new duty station. The submission of the claimant is not a request for reimbursement of expenses incurred while on official temporary duty travel or in connection with relocation to a new duty station. Claimant states that he has been reimbursed for all expenses incurred. We have no authority to review the issues presented in the absence of a claim for reimbursement of expenses. ___________________________________ ALLAN H. GOODMAN Board Judge
