Brand Deals, Sponsorship & Business

Travel fee

Also called: travel expenses, travel and accommodation

Flights, trains, mileage, hotel, meals and airport parking all sit here, and so does anyone you need to bring. Bill it as its own line so a negotiation over your rate never quietly swallows your expenses. Two structures are common: reimbursement against receipts, or a flat allowance you keep whatever it costs. The item most creators leave off is time. A travel day at each end is two days you cannot work, so a one-day shoot at your day rate is really a three-day job.
