"Kraft's IHG code (105406) is a food and beverage corporate code. Kraft Heinz (as it's now known) HQ is in Chicago IL and Pittsburgh PA. IHG enforcement: Holiday Inn Express essentially never checks food company codes; Crowne Plaza occasionally. No Kraft+IHG specific verification incident documented. Consumer packaged goods codes at IHG follow the same pattern as McDonald's and Coca-Cola: low scrutiny due to ambiguous franchise/supplier affiliation."

"FlyerTalk's dedicated thread "AAA card – Do hotels check?" documents: "One frequent traveler staying 1-3 hotels per week was asked for the AAA card at about 10-15% of hotels." Another reported being asked only twice in 70-80 stays. The IHG/AAA discount is officially listed on IHG's website as a membership benefit — unlike corporate codes, this is a publicly advertised member rate. AAA rates are typically only 5-15% off, reducing hotels' incentive to verify."

"Toyota's IHG code (954409548) follows the same low-enforcement pattern as Toyota's Marriott code (TOY), which is confirmed as 'Rarely' checked in FlyerTalk's master codes list. Toyota's IHG travel concentrates near manufacturing hubs (Georgetown KY, San Antonio TX, Princeton IN) at Holiday Inn Express and Crowne Plaza properties — property types with minimal verification infrastructure. No Toyota IHG verification incident documented."
