Not long ago I delivered THESE POSTS about a trip to Victoria (my second favourite city in BC) and our stay at The Fairmont Empress. Quite a while before that I brought you THESE POSTS about a separate trip to Victoria care of Helijet. Later this week I'm going to be spending a night at The Fairmont Waterfront here in Vancouver and today I'm delivering you news that has to do with all three!

A couple of years back we took home the Georgia Straight's BEST OF award for "Best Navel Gazing Web Site", and while our non-profit organization that supports our web site (Vancouver Is Awesome, Inc) is focused on celebrating all of the awesome things that make up our city one of those things is it's proximity to other awesome places. In Super, Neighbours in British Columbia we take you on adventures to other B.C. locales that we think you should check out.

I arrived at the Vancouver Heliport this morning just in time to witness the General Manager of The Fairmont Empress, Martin Leclerc, step off of a helicopter and share some still-hot tea and still-fresh scones with The Fairmont Waterfront's General Manager, Ian Pullan, and Helijet International's President and CEO, Danny Sitnam.

They were meeting to celebrate a new partnership between The Fairmont Waterfront, The Fairmont Empress and Helijet which, for you, will amount to up to 15% off Helijet rates for members of the Fairmont President's Club (which is free to join) along with the best available hotel rates.

Ian Pullan of The Fairmont Waterfront explains that "Fairmont guests are accustomed to a high level of service and they're going to feel right at home onboard Helijet. I'm excited about our new partnership because it provides an exclusive offer and authentically local experience our guests won't find anywhere else."

Like I said, I'll be staying at the Waterfront this week and will let you know all about that "high level of service" Ian's talking about. Stay tuned!
