Has the promotion changed or do the upgrade certificates get deposited into the account bc of the premier status upon approval?
The latter. I got the certificates as soon as I was upgraded to Premier status. After the 3k spend, the two nights appeared soon after.
I just returned from Banff for a conference and it was terrific. Reminds me of returning to Oxford University or a Harry Potter movie :-)
If you are coming from the States, the exchange rate won't hurt either. I found the price of food, drinks etc, even taking away the exchange rate bonus, reasonable for this level of property. Looking forward to returning.
