Being a Practical IB Analyst

Hey Guys, I am going to be an IB analyst starting this summer for an Elite Boutique (Evercore/Centerview/Moelis) and I am trying to figure out how to be most practical with expenses and such. Do most banks use AMEX for their expense cards? And what airlines are primarily used by bankers? Just trying to see what is best to build points and status. Any related advice welcomed. Thanks!
