Default Companies Allowing Employees to Fly

If you work for a large company is probably going to be imposible
unless they already have a policy to allow it. For me, I could buy a
$50 million dollar liability policy and it would still be no where near
enough for my company. On the other hand, if you work for a very small
company you should be able to just add the company to your policy and
it may provide enough coverage for them. The more valuable the company,
the more insurance they should ask for.

Question...

I have to do a lot of regional travel for my company and, due to the
work we do, most of my work is actually at airports. I've asked my
company if I can use my personal aircraft for a lot of this travel and
they denied my request due to what the company percieves as their
liability in the matter.

Is my company misguided or do they really have some liability if I use
my airplane instead of my car for regional travel? What's the
difference between me crashing my airplane into a school (their
example) or plowing my car into the same school's bus stop?
