3) Overall good or not good?
Of course the other option is a TA which I'm also looking at, but as most the travel is on AC I want to look at this option too.
Thanks,
1) As stated by others, no invoicing option but it does give the opportunity to set up Corporate P-Card type systems (e.g. central credit card for all air travel purchases). For me i charge Corp Rewards purchases to the credit card and then expense back to company.
2) No approval via approving manager. But those types of approvals would occur through expense report approval for all trip expenses.
3) Corporate Rewards works great if you have a central executive admin doing the bookings on AC. The EA can book, change, and cancel at will.
CR does have good integration with Flight Passes. However cannot purchase flight pass through CR.
The bad side is that all travelers must use Aeroplan number on all bookings. Hard for those of us who moved over to the drak side (UA with freshly baked cookies and ice cream sundae).
Another bad side is that only book AC flights, so again it difficult if you want to purchase UA P fare to EWR for the NYC investor meetings.
