Reply To: Radisson reviews following my VIP status upgrade

Well, I guess you don’t stay at the right hotels at the right time. You can’t make conclusion based on staying mainly at one airport hotels. In fact, I think it’s rather poor of you not to have negotiated upgrades at Hamburg Airport since you stay there a lot as you say.

In the last six years I have stayed as Premium at Radisson Blu Madrid Prado (junior suite, 3 times), Radisson Collection Seville (1 bedroom suite, 2 times), Radisson Blu Amsterdam City Centre (Mezzanine Suite), Radisson Blu Dubai (one-bedroom suite), Radisson Blu Cebu (1 bedroom suite with lounge access). These were all upgrades from base rooms. I certain now that everyone has the status and starts staying there will be a drop in this.

It doesn’t matter how easy it is to obtain the status if no-one does it. It’s not one of the major loyalty programmes and also separation between US and the rest of the world programmes didn’t help either.
