Per deim is 59 a day (65 for any day you land outside the US). You don’t submit receipts for this, it is yours regardless of how much you actually spend on food. The per deim rates aren’t prorated for the first day and last day of tour either. 8 days of tour X 59 = 472 non taxed per deim.
If you have quick turns all day and don’t have time to go find food, the company will pay for Uber eats or any other delivery service (this is in addition to your 59 a day).
Transportation is normally Uber or Lyft and you use your company issued credit card for these.
Hotel and flight reservations are automatically made by the company and you pay with your company issued credit card.
Anything that goes on your company credit card has to go on an expense report and matched with a receipt which can be a pain in the butt, but it’s not that bad once you get the hang of it.
