Summer is the time for travel: family vacations, beach getaways, mountain retreats and urban escapes. Fairmont knows agents are working extra hard to manage clients and bookings during the busy months between July and September, and has bonus rewards in store for hardworking travel professionals who book with the brand. Fairmont’s Famous Agents reward and recognition program has increased agents’ earning power and lowered redemption prices across the board, making it easier than ever before to book a Fairmont getaway.

Year-round Famous Agents earn 1 base point per qualified room night at the brand’s more than 60 landmark properties around the world. Usually rewards are enjoyed by redeeming a minimum of 50 points for a standard room at a Fairmont city-center property, but for arrivals between July 1st and September 30th, 2011, Fairmont has lowered the points needed to earn free room nights by 20 percent.* At every hotel in the portfolio, from Dallas to Dubai, Boston to Beijing, Famous Agents can make their points go further this summer:

Agents enjoy a number of benefits by joining Famous Agents, including exclusive member-only rates at Fairmont locations worldwide. The program is easy to enroll in at www.frhi.com/famousagents, where agents review a short lesson module and answer corresponding multiple-choice questions, only taking about 20 minutes. After submitting an online application form, agents receive a personalized membership number, which can be used immediately to track client reservations and earn points. As points are accrued on reservations in all room categories and wholesale bookings, members can quickly look forward to enjoying their rewards. Staying up-to-date is made easy with bi-monthly e-newsletters containing the latest news and developments as well as client and member-only offers, which are sent directly to Famous Agents members.

This offer is available to Famous Agents members who redeem their points for complimentary room nights, for arrival between July 1st and September 30th, 2011. Complimentary rooms available through point redemption are subject to availability. Maximum redemption is two consecutive nights per hotel, per stay (a “stay” is defined as consecutive nights in the same hotel or resort, regardless of the number of check-ins or checkouts); additional nights may be booked at the Famous Agents rate (subject to availability), or at the rate of the day. Famous Agents reward certificates do not include resort levies, where applicable. Famous Agents certificates are non-transferable and may only be applied to the room occupied by the Famous Agents member.
