If you enroll in any bonus air or hotel point programs and are traveling on company business, you are still required to travel in the most economical fashion consistent with specific business needs and corporate policies. Circuitous routings, more expensive flights and unnecessary business hours spent waiting for connecting flights to qualify for additional bonus points are not acceptable practices. Additional costs incurred for more expensive or time-consuming travel to earn credits or bonus points are the personal financial obligation of the individual traveler.
