$48 standard and $56 high if no overnight.

You're getting hosed if you have to spend a dime out of your own pocket.

At the charter company I used to work at, we would get the standard GSA rates for Meals and Incidental Expenses. Minimum was $39 and I think it maxed at $64. Less than 8 hours, we only got half. Overnights were full day regardless of duty hours. International rates were somewhere around $85 - $160ish. We would only go to Canada and the islands. New place, we submit receipts and get reimbursed, the customers are charged the GSA rates.

Sounds like your getting hosed. Does the co. put you up in nice hotels (hiltons, hampton, marriott's ect....) or dumps (best western, super 8 ect.)? At the very low end, you should be getting $40 a day.

I think the average is about $30.00/day.

I don't mean to be rude my friend, but that sucks! I get 51.84 for a full day or $2.16 per duty hour. $5 for international flights. Soooooo, yeah $27.20 is pretty low. But hey if you buy Dollar menu you can have a ball! Let me know if you want me to buy the next round. :beer:
