I guess most larger companies pay their employees taxi trips to/from the airport.

  I would expect that every company pays their employees' business travel costs. (With some "ordinary and reasonable" caveats, of course.) Why would an employee pay out of pocket for something that's for the employer's convenience/at the employer's discretion and direction?

    Some companies don't pay _taxi_ travel costs if there is a cheaper alternative (e.g. shuttle busses)

      Good point. I try to take public transport on business (and personal) trips whenever that's reasonable (which is subset of those times when it's cheaper). In many foreign countries, the taxi is so much easier than trying to figure out public transport that the taxi wins. In many US cities, public transport doesn't get you close enough to be reasonable alternative, even though it would be less money out of pocket.
