Our policy for J travel is 9 hours total gate-to-gate including the connections.

Since we're based in the Midwest, that means Europe and South America are almost always fair game, but all continental North America is Y. Personally, I find that reasonable...putting myself in my clients' shoes, a J/F ticket on a midcon would be kind of a waste of money. We all know it isn't a great experience for the traveler.

We still do receipts for meals with suggested caps by city. I much preferred the fixed per diems where you don't turn in meal receipts at all. The "suggested" cap means nobody gives me grief for being $10 over one day, but I'd still rather not have to deal with the receipts. I'd happily go quite frugal on most meals, as I generally enjoy casual cafes, streetfood, farmer's markets, etc.

We are permitted to Uber/Lyft but not permitted to Airbnb. That makes sense to me. Our general hotel guidance is the standard midrange Marriott/Renaissance/Westin/Hilton/etc. level, although if you go up or down a level from there with good reason and a decent rate, nobody minds.
