There is no path to earning status.... It isn't a metric based program. One of my 4 hasn't stayed at a Four Seasons since 2018, yet still in the program!
I'd argue treatment is excellent at all Four Seasons hotels, especially when staying in suites or via the preferred partner program.
There is 1 public path to reaching status as mentioned above. The other path (told to me by 3 FS Elites independently including people from FT) has a pretty clear directive that I think I can easily fulfill. You’re talking about requalification which I understand is very lax.
Thanks for your comments but I am more interested in hearing actual experiences (either here or through more PMs) from people that have the status. And for me, even the publicly guaranteed benefits of the program (especially as someone that spends at spas naturally) are appealing. If you’re not a fit for FSE, that’s fine.
