Can you buy tickets then only expense your own

Company buys for employees.

Buy their tickets at the same time you buy yours. Select seats in the same row.

That's the only way I've figured this can be done. And hoping that seats around me are still available by the time I'm given the reservation by the travel team.

So apparently companies pay their employees. Use that money you got and buy tickets and pay for the seats you want. No, your firm won’t pay for your family.

The travel teams holds the tickets until we're about 12 days from travel date (don't ask why, dunno). Which lowers my chances of getting seats next to each other.

Hi everyone! I’m switching internally to my company’s LA office (from Boston). I only need to be in the office 1 or 2x per week and am toying around with the idea of living in San Diego and commuting up that one day. It’s likely be a 2.5hr drive or so each way, which seems like a lot. Can anyone speak to whether or not I’d go insane with that setup or if there are ways to make it more tolerable? I just have more family / friends in SD and would prefer to live there if possible :) thank you!!
