XML Discount Code
I booked a room at the JW Marriott in Summerlin using the "XML"- Leisure Link code. The reservation says "I.D. required". Does anyone know what kind of I.D. they want for this code? The "Leisure Rate" on their website is $199, the "Leisure Link" rate is $179.10. Thanks.

From what I have read in this forum, you should be OK. I think that the XML rate is open to all. Anyone else have any input here?

it's an employee leisure rate, so in theory, they can ask to see id to confirm that you are employed by the company, but since so many companies "share" this rate code, I can't see how they can verify employment... or care. Also, since retirees of the company I work for can also access this rate, showing ID is a bit impractical. Depending on your "ethics" of booking a discount that you aren't entitled to use, i'd say the chances of being asked for id is slim.
