I know exactly what you mean. My preference too, full freedom to choose hotels / flights etc and pay all personally and claim back. Quite amazing the benefits available in terms of personal credit card points and perks. The policy is simply "be reasonable" ^
Those I feel sorry for are whereby they have no choice and are forced onto some LCC, on a weird routing or in a hotel that is really not appropriate. I have insisted on arranging my own flights / hotels after once being booked on a London to Chicago flight that went LHR-LAX-ORD....because the person that booked it noticed it was £50 cheaper with 1-stop. She had no idea of the distances involved in the US and thought that LAX to ORD was similar time to catching an LHR to MAN shuttle
