But do you tip van drivers?

Yup. I give them handfuls candy corn from Halloween.

I was under the impression, the company paid gratuity. They’re responsible for the transportation to and from the airport.

I do hope that is meant to be sarcasm.

Not sure whatever gave you that impression. You do however get per diem from the company.

How often do you spend per diem on transportation to and from the airport? My guess is never.

I use per diem to cover miscellaneous expenses while I am on the road, which often includes tipping and not just van drivers.

Preach
Leaving a couple of bucks on the table for a free breakfast is just a thing to do.

I don’t follow. how tipping the van driver is considered a miscellaneous expense. Do you tip the hotel maids too? Transportation is provided by the company (Sec. 5.C.1.).
