Funded proposals are provided by travel and accommodation support for a maximum of two user per experiment. Please keep in mind these two considerations: 1) if you don't flag the support as crucial, a partial support (1 partecipant) will be considered; 2) due to the limited level of funding, if  you flag the support as crucial, but the fundings are already completely used, you will not get beamtime.
