Hello
We are attempting to set up company guidlines for employees to spend while they travel in the US on business. Do you know what the average allowances are for hotels,per diem, and cars for any large American companies.

thanks
Colleen

Answer
Colleen,

I don't have per diem information but I believe if you contact Runzheimer International at http://www.runzheimer.com/web/home.aspx
they will be able to help.

Additional resources are:
The National Business Travel Association http://www.nbta.org
