Current 135 Per Diem Rates

Can't believe I'm the only one with this answer:
Company gives us Captains the company credit card, to be used for meals, hotels, etc. We are not given a maximum amount to spend, but are told to be fair to ourselves AND the company.
We've had guys abuse it, and they've been spoken to about it. But for the most part the deal works really well.

We had that for a LONG time, then the abuse got to be too much. Had to scrap the cards for meals and go per diem...

I've been at this company 10 years; they did talk about scrapping the credit cards, but never did. As pilots, we feel we have a great deal. Turns out that our accounting department loves it, too. Rather than multipliying hours on duty to your meal expense, and adding it to a total of days flown, they simply pay the bill (after asking us to verify the charges).
I think that if someone abuses the card, THAT PERSON, not the entire staff would be put on the per diem schedule.
