I don’t work at Big4 anymore but still use their codes for booking Marriott hotels and carry my old business card around in case they ask. I want to book a hotel room for family but I’m not traveling with, can I still use the code and message/call them and transfer the room name to my family member’s? Have others done this?

Posts like these are why now they are asking for work ID/work email more often. Can’t imagine screwing your family on vacation, imagine they get there, asked for ID they can’t provide, and they change their rate to full rate, which last minute can be double or triple.

Nobody really cares. Haven’t been asked for ID ever in 3 years of consistent travel using everybody else’s code

Any particular chain or location?

Lol this isn’t worth a felony

Felony?

Absolutely not. They’d not only get screwed paying the full rate but if it could be traced back to you, they’ll cancel you’re whole account

I wouldn’t do this for family. You don’t qualify and your family definitely doesn’t qualify.

Yeah, probably not worth the risk

So you are lying about employment to cheat the system. You would like to share the cheating with your family to share the wealth and also deflect liability?

I think you should find a new gig that pays better or has a corporate hotel code.

If it’s a Marriott just call and add them as a guest on the reservation

I’m worried that since I’m not traveling with them, I don’t want to put them in a bad situation where the hotel denies them

I have a third round interview this Thursday, but after I sent my availability, I booked a flight for work that is causing a problem. The interview ended up scheduled for 3:30-4:15, and I'm supposed to be on a 5pm flight out of LGA. Is there a reliably quiet place at LGA to do the interview (I don't have lounge access)? Would it be a bad idea to say my availability changed and I can't do that time slot anymore? Or should I cancel / rebook my flight to later at night?
