"DLA (Delta Air Lines) is listed at hotelcorporatecodes.com with verification "⚠️ Sometimes" and 10-15% discount, North America scope. No dedicated FlyerTalk thread on Delta/DLA ID enforcement was found. General pattern for airline employee codes at Marriott: medium risk, primarily because airline employee IDs are easy to request (physical company badge) and airline employees are frequent Marriott guests, making front desk staff more practiced at requesting verification. Properties near major Delta hubs (ATL, JFK, LAX, MSP, DTW) have higher awareness. Select-service and suburban properties: rarely checked. Full-service urban flagship properties: occasional."

"I mean, it depends on the size of the hotel. Having one person on night shift for a Fairfield isn’t uncommon. The better hotels have more people working at front desk even at night simply due to the size and brand. I’d however say though, if the property has been notified of the guest’s check in time in advance, and part of deal of getting into night shift is to check people in at unusual hours like that, then it certainly does not sound right to me that the front desk agent cannot have the meal earlier or later out of that many hours of the shift."

"I always see people saying that they aren’t able to do mobile check in. I’ve only stayed at two Marriott hotels where I tried to do mobile check in ( both of them never been to before) and they both let me without having to go to the front desk which I was really happy about because I had lost my ID and didn’t know how I was going to check in. Also I think I only had about 20 nights at the time, I usually stay with my boyfriend because he’s titanium."
