OK, but as I wrote above if that is true, then who is sitting up front? Or do they just allow certain people to book PE or C and not others?

I deal mostly with American companies and I just haven't seen that level of control anywhere, except at large corporations. And yes I am talking about here and now in 2014. I always pay myself and get reimbursed later.

Another point of proof, if everything was controlled down to the point of the company credit cards, then who are all those people who have AF/KL/BA etc. Amex cards? I'm sure that some companies have corporate cards, but clearly not all.
