Meals & Incidentals

[porra]

Hi There,
Do you get " Per diem or Expense reimbursed" at your company?
What is your hour/daily rate?
Thanks

expensed:
Norm is $75 in conus , more Intl
Can go as high as $90 in some expensive US cities, just not every day.

It needs to be adjusted up as I don't like fast food or any junk food for that matter. Just not the right time yet to do it.

Just got word today, officially $10 breakfast, $15 lunch, $35 dinner and no alcohol reimbursed. Apparantly the 4 of us pilots covering 2 $8 million dollar airplanes need less of an allowance than our other 50,000 employees.

Company AMEX for all expenses with VP HR handling the CC invoices. We've never gotten formal guidance on expenses but try to keep it around $60/day average in the small & medium-sized cities we normally fly to, with an understanding that larger markets cost more. A drink or two with dinner isn't looked down upon, and neither is our smoothie & coffee habit. Hotels are normally HGI/Courtyard quality, with the occasional Doubletree/Embassy/Hilton if there's a good FBO rate.

Thanks for the info...
So is it safe to say that in the corporate world, you get expenses reimbursed instead of perdiem?

 

[semperfido]

expensed is pretty much the standard

Never heard of per-diem in corporate.

Everything on company amex if possible.

Meal guidelines seem to run 75 domestic / 150 Intl but eat what you want just have receipts.

A drink or two with dinner fine, no bar tabs. While it would be nice, I really dont expect the boss to pay for the partying.

Hotels are whatever is the good place to stay. Marriott/Hilton types US, JW/Hyatt/Intercont types overseas.

Mostly common sense.

We are a 3 pilot - 1 FA operation.

Same guidelines here, well except for the overseas, 3rd pilot (which we need) and the FA. :laugh:

Company CC, just turn the receipts in at the end of the trip/week.

We can do expense or per diem at our discretion. It depends on the trip, where we stay, who's comp'ing who, etc.
