"FedEx Freight American Freightways (954105683) is an IHG code for a FedEx freight division. The FedEx/IHG enforcement pattern applies across all FedEx business unit codes: IHG InterContinental properties request employee ID; IHG Holiday Inn Express properties essentially never do. FedEx's reported monitoring of hotel booking volume means anomalous usage could trigger company-side audit. FedEx employee IDs are standardized physical badges. Properties near FedEx facilities (Memphis TN, Indianapolis IN) are most verification-active."

"Overall, I have been asked for proof of corporate id or business card especially when using negotiated rates at individual properties. Now at most of these places our company has deeply discounted rates that can be 50% off the BRG and may have last room guarantee too. For example, I have been asked at the Hilton KL, IC Strings Tokyo, IC Jakarta, IC Frankfurt, IC GS Hong Kong, CP Zurich to name just a few. From friends experiences the GH Singapore is also known to ask for proof if some of the quite low negotiated rates are used. Now usually, I was asked once and then it was done and only twice at the Hilton KL, but not all the time on every stay."

"FedEx Ground is one of several FedEx business unit codes in IHG's GDS system. The general FedEx IHG pattern documented on FlyerTalk: IHG has been "very careful" in recent years about verifying codes at full-service brands. FedEx Ground staff IDs are company-standard. Properties near FedEx Ground hubs (Indianapolis, Memphis) are more familiar with FedEx employee badges and may request them. Holiday Inn Express near distribution centers: essentially never check."
