FDX Deviation question
Can I use my company card (or any card for that matter) to purchase my own deviation ticket on hotwire or priceline and get the company to reimburse it. My situation: recurrent....bank is 750ish, 1 way ticket from where I am to where I need to be is 1700ish. I can find it on line for 650. Can I buy the ticket myself, submit the receipt and get reimbursed?
Thanks.....and I will wear the tightest leather "slacks" and mesh polo shirt that I can find!!

Yes. But if plans change you own the ticket. I will occasionally buy a round trip ticket direct from the airline on months when the bank is tight. No problems with reimbursement however you do watch the weather alot closer. 
You should use company credit card according to CBA Section 8.

I'm very familiar with this CBA section, after 8 years of deviating from the scheduled deadhead to MEM or ANC from LAX, for recurrent training. Recurrent training deadhead money gets lumped in with your normal trip deadheads.
