I contacted FPC the other day asking about the miles for the benefit as I´ve stayed at six different Fairmont hotels so far this year and to my suprise nobody knew anything about this benefit.
The "More Fairmont, More Miles" benefit has also disappeared from the FPC site.
Did anyone take a screenshot of the benefit comparison chart which includes the "More Fairmont, More Miles" benefit in March 2011 by chance?
I´m pretty sure I (and the other FTers who posted in this thread) didn´t suffer from hallucinations...

Not to sound obnoxious, but the benefit is still listed here and was listed on the main FPC site for quite a while.
So is/was this just an "error" on the website? (= "bad luck" for those FPC members seeing this benefit listed)

Just got a reply back, saying it's no longer offered. So I referred them to that link above. Don't know if I'll hear back. Kinda got the impression that they don't much care.

Just heard back from them again.
Here's what they said:
The below link, as you mentioned, is indeed still active on the internet and should be redirected shortly. This link is a former benefits page from 2008 which is currently only available online via google and can not be found by visiting www.fairmont.com directly.
We do apologize for the confusion this has caused and we look forward to welcoming you back to Fairmont Hotels & Resorts in the near future.
Oh well...

Thanks for posting pack. At least we´re all getting the same canned answer. 
They´re still ignoring the fact that the benefit was listed on the main FPC site from March 1, 2011 till sometime early April and it´s not just some odd FPCers digging up broken redirects. Nevermind... will just forget about those 6000 miles.... not worth it to follow up...
I´m getting the impression that over the last 6 months FPC could have done a much better job (e.g. promo bonus miles or Plat bonus miles issue; no sweet suite promo
; exact status of early qualification still unclear; Passion benefit are great, but they messed up the implementation, e.g. no benefits sent out after 2 months, Fairmont Moments not plublished yet etc.)
This is a real pity as I´ve had nothing but excellent stays so far this year which included some fantastic suite upgrades, comp. upgrades, little treats, pleasant communications with GMs
