Back in September, the long-established luxury brand Fairmont Hotels & Resorts drew attention to itself with its "Experience the Grandest of Feelings" campaign. In an emotional video, Fairmont celebrated the origins and history of the company. In addition, the campaign inspired people to discover new places and simply go on the road. "It doesn't matter how, why or where we travel. The mere act of traveling, no matter how far - opens the mind to diversity and inclusion and allows society to boldly move forward," Mansi Vagt, Vice President, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts believes. Now Fairmont is introducing "The Grandest of Escapes Exclusively By Fairmont." This is a collection that offers luxurious experiences all around the world.
