In response to "Last minute first class airline ticket from Detroit to DC: $1400. Figure 8 people on a plane, $20k doesn't seem so extravagent, does it? -- nm" by oblique

Well, yes it does.

I figure a CEO would never travel alone. Plus, when I flew on the company jet, it was almost never empty. Always someone in the company was also - oblique Nov 19, 14:51

- A CEO position isn't supposed to be an end reward for years of work, they are being compensated for making sure a company thrives - musubi Nov 19, 14:50 4

    - It's a salient point when they are in front of congress asking for $25B. - musubi Nov 19, 14:58 2

  - The co mpany should reward financially. Then the CEO can buy a jet, and expense the company for his travel time and fuel cost. - Beryllium Nov 19, 14:49 5
    - Depends on the cost/benefit analysis. Is it cheaper to supply the employee with a car/jet or pay the expenses for him using his own? -- nm - VMan Nov 19, 14:52 3
      - But *did they do* a CBA? And do they continue to re-do it when the economic situation changes? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 19, 14:53 2
        
        I would assume so. Their finance people were always sticklers at our meetings. -- nm - VMan Nov 19, 14:57 1
