Didn't really plan to do this - Gold is enough for me - but somehow got enough points to get me pass the Platinum threshold for the first time ever last weekend.
Wonder if that'll change anything, as the formal differences between Gold and Plat don't seem that interesting to me (lounges sound great, but then I don't leave Europe often), but maybe I'll get upgrades more frequently?

All stays in Europe: The Netherlands and France mostly.
In the Netherlands almost always upgrades and other benefits, early-late check-out, drink vouchers.
In France is it more complicated. The drink vouchers no problem, but upgrades are very rare and late checkout often difficult.
But next year again Gold !

Usually my emails to a Fairmont property are answered in a matter of hours to even minutes.
I find this lack of response alarming.

I have done as you suggested and contacted the hotel directly. However, I have not received an answer so far after a few days, which is very odd.

I'm sure I still have some direct email addresses of personel I know there, but many have sadly left in the recent time and furthermore the management has changed as well.

Well, it's quite embarassing, because it's my main Fairmont Hotel in Marrakech. I did use the email provided one the fairmont website: https://www.fairmont.com/marrakech/

Your current status:
of my stays in China.
Status platinum
You're this close to a status upgrade :100 %14 501 / 14 501 Status points or 35 / 60 nights
I am surprised apart from the Fairmont group members I seem to be one of the highest spenders (per night) and I have mostof my stays in China.
