Am I the only one on here who isn't fixated on whether or not its a commute?
Who was paying the Immigration fee, Customs Fee, Security service fee, federal transportation fee, APHIS fee, and Belgian embarkation tax before now? That's $91 in fees on a $153 round trip.
I jumpseated international pre-911 and I had to pay a ton of fees. So either the employee or the company was paying all those fees. If the company was paying them, did they do it out of goodwill or was it a contractual benefit?
