How do you deal with flights.
Do you:
a) Find out what they are willing to pay (e.g. current clients will pay sleazyjet / ryan air or better depending on avail of flights) then invoice them for this and find your own flights
b) take what the clients gets you
c) its all inc my daily rate (probably only people who commute to for a set number of flights)
For me its a. Currently client will offer me a flight e.g. EasyJet then I'll take that cost book a BA or even Czech Airlines who are very good imo and fly with them. As a tall mofo easy jet flight seats just do not have enough leg room period.
Although I am getting good at convincing the client that they should front the whole cost for the better flights. Overall its saves them more money as the cheapo flights are usually midday and for a while they didn't understand that a £40 flight at midday with worse value than a £100 flight at 7am as they lose a whole day of my time at a heck of a lot more than £60.
