Flight Pay
Many people are required to travel as part of their jobs. Generally, the time that employees spend traveling to work-related activities counts as "worktime" — which means that companies must pay for it.

For example, suppose Elmo has to fly to Juneau for a business meeting. He drives to the airport on Sunday evening, boards the red-eye flight to Alaska, checks into a hotel, and attends the meeting on Monday afternoon. After staying overnight, Elmo flies back on Tuesday and is in the office on Tuesday afternoon.
