"Raytheon's Marriott code 9753 is a defense contractor code. Defense company codes at Marriott receive moderate scrutiny — defense employee IDs are typically security-badged and distinctive. Properties near Raytheon locations (Tucson AZ, McKinney TX, Waltham MA, El Segundo CA) regularly process defense contractor travelers. No specific Raytheon ID denial incident found in FlyerTalk, but FlyerTalk notes that defense contractor codes "tend to face more questions at full-service properties near major installations." US select-service: essentially no enforcement."

"I wouldn’t mind that at all. Credit Card companies have super weak security and it’s very easy to defraud them - they just pay our money back, and counts that as losses so we’ll sure up about it and keep using the cards What I mind is that the mobile check-in is basically a lie. Marriott is deceiving me. Random hypothetical people that might or might not stole my credit card are not. Hilton works just fine btw"

"I think the generic 'show corp id' designation means show the company business card. I think a lot of us don't have them or, if we do & we're not going to an office that we'd need to show them, leave them at home. I worked for some F500s that didn't require corp ids with shiny smiling faces on them & others that did; same with company credit cards. All, however, provided biz cards when working for them."
