Sorry if this is too off-topic.  I dont think it is but never mind
i'll post anyway .....

What do you other contractors/freelancers do in this scenario:

You work off site for a client,  working from your own office on a
task, charging by the hour for the job.   The client calls and says he
wants you in his office for a meeting with some of the stakeholders in
the job.  The meeting will take 2.5 hours, on a day when you'd
otherwise be working by the hour for this client or another ...

Travel to the client's office is 90 minutes each way, a total of 3
hours travelling time when you count both trips there and back.

You obviously charge the client for the 2.5 hours stakeholders
meeting, but do you also charge for the 3 hours travel time?    If so,
at the full chargeout rate or a special travel time rate?

I think if you are going to spend 8 hours at the client office, its'
like travel to and from work and therefore not chargeable.  but since
this is a part of a day that would otherwise be chargeable if you
werent going to the meeting, do you charge for the 3 horus taken out
of the day travelling?
