Can I claim lodging and meal deductions when I was paid Living Out Allowance?

My company required me to work out of town for our jobs as an oilfield electrician. We were paid a flat rate of $120 per day of LOA (Living Out Allowance), and were responsible for paying for our own meals and accommodations.

 

Can I claim my Air BnB costs as Lodging?

Can I claim all of my meals away from home?
