"General Motors' Hyatt code NC12964 is for one of the world's largest automakers. GM HQ is in Detroit MI — Hyatt Regency Detroit handles GM employees regularly. FlyerTalk's Hyatt verification pattern: 50% ID check rate across international stays, primarily at Park Hyatt and Grand Hyatt properties. Michigan/Detroit Hyatt properties are familiar with GM employee badges and may request them. US domestic Hyatt Place/House: minimal enforcement. No NC12964-specific denial documented."

"I guess I just don't see this. I'm not saying rates never changes, but if it really changed every time someone booked a corporate rate, then the rates would change constantly. I can't say that I see this too often or ever. Also I doubt there's enough people doing this to have a huge effect on overall occupancy anyway."

"I use corporate codes all the time and never get asked. I shouldn’t be using them but, hey, it is what it is. The risk is you get that front desk agent (or even manager) who goes “I see your with the Coca-Cola rate, can I have your corporate Id please”? Has never happened to me yet but it is a risk. So book accordingly."
