[SchoolFinance] Fwd: Purchases for airline tickets

[Amy Atherton]

Also, if you call the credit card company to alert them that a large
purchase will be made they can make sure it goes through.  We also do this
if we know a group is taking a card out of town so they don't put a fraud
alert/hold on the card.
