If business travel is part of your role, you may be able to request specific modifications that let you manage celiac disease safely while traveling for work.
These requests are framed as low-disruption adjustments, not exemptions from travel. Be specific: name the adjustments that would help, and note why each one is low-cost or low-impact. Employers often agree when the ask is concrete and modest.
A letter that explains the heightened food-safety risk of unfamiliar travel environments and requests a short list of adjustments: advance notice, accommodations with kitchen facilities where cost-comparable, and modest meal-expense flexibility.
Answer a few questions and we assemble your letter
Include only the adjustments you actually need.
Hotels with kitchenettes are often similarly priced to standard rooms; noting this removes a common objection. For meals, propose a modest threshold rather than an open-ended request.
If you only need advance notice, a shorter version focusing on that single ask may be more effective.
