I'm not sure I spelt it out clearly enough, my current employer allowed expenses on non-corporate cards because I didn't actually HAVE a corporate card. The whole reason for my post was that I am now getting one, which means that I can of course no longer cancel the booking to rebook, because the payment will no longer go through my personal card, and the whole shenanigans would of course violate what the corporate card is for.
Thankfully, upgrading on the phone within 24 hours seems to be possible without incurring the change fee, and without having to cancel any booking, and the extra charge can be paid on a different (personal) card. That's completely legit to me, and in my mind no different to paying for a glass of wine with dinner during a business trip and putting that on a personal card. If that did end up on the corporate card by accident that would just be an honest mistake, and the employer would just ask for it to be reimbursed out of my own pocket.
