£23,000

That's how much I spent on travel last business year!

Just looking over my year end, travel, is certainly my most expensive outgoing and do easyjet give me any airmiles? I think not...

Does anyone else spend as much as I do on travel? Is this typical?

is that just flights/hotels and actually travelling from a to b or does that include staying away i.e hotels/rented apartments?

For me, hotels, eating out while away, fuel, trains, flights are all part of travel expenses and easily exceed 23,000. Got to keep taxable income down you know.

That's just travel, nothing else. Flights, trains & taxies

You should try commuting to Moscow every week on flexible tickets and staying in 5* hotels. Definitely bumps the airmiles & amex rewards accounts.

It also helps (unless you are Mich) if this is directly chargeable (+VAT) to the client too, but that's another matter.

It’s alright. If I think I’m going to make so much profit I end up in the Dutch 52% tax scale, there’s always the Amstel Hotel.

Does London qualify?

Return fair from Edinburgh (train) is about £240 - yes that's 2nd class. Flight is no much cheaper once you add additional costs at either airport.

That's a grand a month before you know it.

Sorry I thought that was the amount NAT paid to become mod.
