Our corporate rates are not much different than the corporate rates....sometimes only about 10% difference. I know we are easily one of Marriotts top customers too, but you have to realize that there are many fine details you are not aware of. Though j don't work for our travel department, I know the leader there and know our contract gives us a healthy kick back at year end based upon our spend and number of room nights.

Even our meeting contracts give us kick backs, sometimes of up to 25-30% back on top of our corporate discount.

I would not recommend you trying to contact Marriott directly.
