"Harvard University's Marriott code 17885 is an academic institutional code. No FlyerTalk thread discusses Harvard verification incidents. University codes at Marriott receive the lowest enforcement treatment — hotel staff view academic institutional rates as similar to government rates in terms of legitimacy. Harvard's Cambridge MA presence means nearby Marriott properties (Marriott Boston Cambridge, Sheraton Commander) are familiar with Harvard employees. No verification incident documented."
— FlyerTalk general pattern
"I have been a Platinum for a few years (which implies I frequent Marriott properties on a regular basis) and up until tonight was NEVER asked for any id to justify a corporate rate or discount (I legitimately use a few corporate rates I am entitled to and AAA rates)"
— FlyerTalk_User
"I used to China often for work and book directly. I’ve never been asked, if you have a sticker or they can see something with the company logo they assume you work there. I’ve only been asked in Korea and was a hot mess until a manager stepped in."
