15 different ICs
5 different Kimptons

Atacama40
50 Nights,
40 of which were IC's,
2 Kimptons,
the rest CP's
~ spend £17k ish - but that is heavily skewed by a very expensive family IC PL stay recently
A wide spread of new IC locations rather than return visits but that said also our normal UK regular stops

For everyone still awaiting or interested in RA & Inner Circle,
it might be good to cross reference your personal current statistics versus the others,
And email AMB-services for an audit to see if maybe their system has missing stays/EQP or wrongly coded: "nonqualifying".
Another way to acquire RA is to submit proof of the title "Sheik or Sheika" (as a quick glance last 2024 DEC at IC Parklane London's Club Intercontinental eligability list shows at least 13 harem members have RA)
Another source of data are the comments at

Good luck!
