I'm sorry if this question has already been answered. I just can't find the answer. I'm going to book in Sept. Does anyone know if this promotion will still be available in June (90 days before booking?)
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

Just book as soon as it opens and you'll be fine. Let us know if you have any problems with booking at that time. Cheers!

Certainly not at Sensing the Guy Mitchell restaurant at Boston Battery Wharf Fairmont. But it's a lovely hotel, and I thank nyx.t2t for his assitance.

Friends and Family rates are cheap enough that you can pay for breakfast...and if they're not then you can just book the B&B rate

I stayed at The Plaza last night (May 17-18) and had no problems at all. Being 22 and never having stayed in a hotel of such caliber, I was blown away. I hope Fairmont realizes how successful of a viral marketing campaign this has become. I would have never booked last night's stay or a two night stay in July without the NFAF code as I would have never been able to afford it. I did order a nice breakfast today via room service so I contributed something to the coffers.
Overall, very pleasant.

I think it all depends on each individual hotel and what rooms/rates they decide to include at their hotel. xray is correct in saying that the F&F rates are so cheap that you may as well buy your own breakfast though

Thanks for the help!!
That is correct, you don't need to use the employee ID code. But from what it's probably safer to have it attached to your reservation so if there is any question during your check-in, the code can be traced back to whomever is promoting it.
What doesn't compute? The rates are right there on the website with the promotional code. I currently work with Fairmont and their occupancy levels have been lower than ever which makes sense for them to offer rates like this. People don't have much money these days to fork over for a hotel room.

To make this worthwhile for everyone involved, please enter a Booker ID when making Friends and Family reservations...

Especially if you got the info from this thread... and it only takes a few seconds to include a booker ID while you're reserving anyway...
