For those of you who travel for work, I'm curious as to how flexible and generous (or not) your employer's travel policy is.
Which class of travel/ticket types are you permitted to book? And do you get to choose your own airline, or is it purely BFOD (Best Fare Of Day)? Or are you perhaps obliged to fly with one particular airline?
i work for a big law firm. we fly qantas as a preferred carrier but we can fly anyone else if we want.
if our travel is less than 4 hours we are obligated to go non-flexible economy but anything over 4 hours or overseas is business class
hotels are off an approved list (mostly those within a block or 2 of our offices) unless the client is paying or client wants you near there office for meetings
oh and ffrequent flyer and status points we get to keep
