AMEX FHR rate for FS Macau
I'm going to be in Macau (or is it Macao?) in late June and wanted to stay at the FS there. On the FS website I find a Deluxe room for USD$295, but the FHR program quotes me USD$887 for the same room. Are the FHR amenities for this property really worth the almost $600 differential?

FHR Hong Kong usually matches the price shown on the hotel's website (rack rates). US$887 is definitely too much for FS Macau - did u try a different CTS agent?

Suggest you look into the Four Seasons Preferred Partner program over FHR.... unless you live and die by late check out. The perks are pretty much tied to every FS rate, including stay more and experience more packages that tend to be hit or miss with FHR

If you're sure about the numbers you should let AMEX know, because this is a positive disincentive to book through FHR.
