RocketMiles Booking

Hello FTers, does anyone know if booking through RocketMiles is considered a 3rd party booking and won't be eligible to earn regular FPC points?

FPC is not a pints-based program (regardless of how you book). Whether the stay would count as a qualifying stay, I don't know (I'd tentatively say yes, but don't quote me on it).

Now that would be an interesting program - free nights based on how much beer you drink...

I booked the Chateau Laurier last year via RM & yes, it did count as a qualifying stay.
