Corps official lodging facilities will be bookable when
creating Temporary Additional Duty (TDY) authorizations in
the Defense Travel System (DTS) effective 25 May 2026.

in DTS is listed as the installation (when applicable), not
the associated city or town.
5. Per reference a, certificates of non-availability will
only be issued if accommodations are not available.

conducting official travel will be limited to the official
lodging rate when lodging is available but not utilized and a
certificate of non-availability is not included in the travel
voucher.

Change of Station (PCS) orders and leisure travelers may also
