"Alaska Airlines' A70 code is listed on corporatecode.org and confirmed across major aggregators. Airline employee codes as a category carry Medium risk — hotels are accustomed to airline crew and employee rates and occasionally verify crew IDs, especially at airport-adjacent properties. The A70 code is alphanumeric rather than a pure 3-letter ticker, making it slightly less prominent in code-sharing communities. No specific forum discussion found documenting elevated enforcement. Standard airline-sector Medium applies, with higher risk at SEA-TAC corridor properties."

"I mean, when I worked night audit, the whole night is practically a break after like 1am. It was usually just me and one other guy running the place (the other guy is just cleaning and doesn’t know how to do front desk). We don’t get an actual “lunch break” where we have to clock out for 30 minutes because we can’t leave the desk completely unoccupied (unless you were going to the bathroom or tension to a guest away from the desk or something). And we just ate at our desks if we were hungry, not sitting in the back."

"I have stayed 100s of times with various corporate rates (including Japan) and the only hotel that has asked is W hotels. Even then they didn’t push much. I have been a consultant for 20 years and many clients require you to use their rates when they are paying the bill. The hotel doesn’t have an up to date list of every employee that works for a company globally. The woman at the W said “I don’t really care, just show me anything on your phone that says your name and that company. You can type an email now “."
