Are clients responsible for air tickets?

[+ tassojunior]

The cheapest flight isn't always the "better flight" and often can be the worst option.

What I mean is I always prefer nonstops and I won't be "brand loyal" to an airline when it means connecting instead of nonstop. That's why it makes more sense in a hub to be brand loyal for status.

My expectation below.

Occurrences in which I expect Airfare to be covered:

 

- I am making a non scheduled special trip for a client

 

- If I add a day to the end of my trip, or divert plans

 

If my airfare is being covered, out of courtesy I will not double dip and try to book hourly appointments in said city.

I had a client recently who wanted to see me enough to offer to cover my airfare but didn’t want an overnight, so he understood I’d get my own hotel (that I paid for) and see other clients. That was pretty cool. But all discussed beforehand.

I've purchased airfare for all providers that I request to travel to me or with me. However, I've had about 3 naive types buy their own airfare and ask me to reimburse them when we met. Lucky for them, I'm a sure thing, but providers should never do that.
