Even at a Fortune 10, one must have reported to someone. If I did not know who to contact, that is who I would contact and ask them to approve or at least supply the name of the person who can.
Who would OP have asked if they needed something when they worked there?
My manager is useless. I usually inform them of the corporate policies. The head of the department is also useless. They never book their own travel. They will just shrug and ask if HR knows. HR is generally also useless and ignores most emails, but I guess that might work in my favor. Since they've had a lot of layoffs in the last year, maybe there is an actual policy for this in place somewhere. Or she'll ignore it and I'll be fine either way.
I just emailed HR.

I'm afraid it might sound presumptuous phrased this way. I did just email HR and asked if there is policy for this or if I can use it for personal travel. Let's see if she responds.
