Fairmont free nights
« on: August 22, 2012, 09:24:09 AM »
Part of Farimont Platinum status that you get with the fairmont cc is Complimentary third night on a three-night stay. At Fairmont San Fransico, they require a 3 night minimum stay, but you only get 2 nights free as signup bonus.
Do you thing I could get complimentary third night if using award certificates?
Could I use 2 reward certificates from 1 account and 1 from another account to satisfy the 3rd night stay?

1. You don't earn Platinum status, you earn Premier status.
2. I'd assume that the 3 night minimum stay requires 2 paid nights. CMIIW.
3. Premier night certs are not transferable.

Not a specific location, but rather overall how is their availbilty? Are there many blackout dates, is the availbilty just as good as Hyatt's free nights?

The fact that I'm asking which hotel should be a clue that it's not that simple.

Vancouver?
Most hotels go by availability of "Fairmont" rooms for sale.

All hotels have different blackout dates of their choosing: http://www.fairmont.com/fpc/limitedaccess
For Vancouver PR: January 21-22; March 7; May 30-31; June 1; September 16, 30; October 1; December 31, 2013; March 17-20; December 31, 2014

Some hotels like the Plaza NYC and Savoy London require booking 9+ months out.

Once. Just happened to call when there was a cancellation I guess, otherwise it's booked way out.

Emailed the GM, and in house reservations, and they opened up space to book the reservation. Now have to get them to apply the suite upgrade as officially it's on certificate per reservation
