"I've been given codes for several chains from family/friends who are entitled to have them. All have assured me they have never been asked to provide company ID when checking in. In fact I was told they give the codes out to visiting clients who won't have ID anyway."

"HotelCorporateCodes.com rates the Marriott DIS code as "Sometimes" for ID verification. No dedicated forum thread found specifically discussing Disney corporate code verification incidents. Disney has 140,000+ US employees and the code is widely circulated. One FlyerTalk user noted that a retired employee who disclosed their retired status was never asked for ID, suggesting properties prioritize rate code volume over strict verification. FL Marriott properties near Orlando HQ are most familiar with the code."

"It’s about 80/20 for me. 80% of the time I still have to go to the front desk. I’ve asked the front desk folks, and they always say “our property has a policy to not allow mobile check-in”… I guess Marriott allows this at the property’s discretion. One property said they don’t want the guest to get stuck with full charges if they end up having travel issues and mobile checked-in the day before."
