On the first leg of the #redcarpettrip, we were going to be travelling from Mumbai to Singapore on the Singapore Airlines Suites Class. This brought us an invitation to the First Class Section of the Mumbai Airport’s GVK Lounge.
Look inside to find details of the premium experience this lounge has set-up for all their patrons, including white-glove dining and a spa experience.
Mumbai Airport’s operator GVK offers a meet-and-greet service at the airport called Pranaam.
We used this service on departure for the #redcarpettrip from Mumbai, and were able to book these complimentary on account of our Citi Prestige Credit card which provides free MAAS services around Asia-Pacific at designated airports for Citi Prestige Credit Card holders.
Upcoming is a review of the service we experienced at Departure.
In 2015, I spent time at 7 luxury resorts in the hills and on beaches, apart from many other hotels in cities over the year. Here are some of the best resort experiences we had over 2015, all the way from India to Bora Bora to Maldives!
HDFC Bank Diners Club has some great promotions for travel and dining, which makes it a great card to hold in your wallet if you want to earn miles and points in India.
However, as I found out over the last quarter of 2015, they have an incredibly bureaucratic and clueless team to deal with the transfer, and the process is manual and very irritating. It took me over 2 months to get my points transferred from HDFC Bank’s point currency to the mileage programs I wanted them transferred in.
Do read through this before you decide to pick up these cards, and perhaps we can compare notes in the Comments section?
Our honeymoon trip was a year in the planning, and had some amazing experiences included, largely due to the power of miles and points and status. We went to Los Angeles, Bora Bora, Las Vegas, Washington D.C. and New York, and flew some of the most coveted products such as Singapore Airlines Suites Class and Etihad Apartments on our way in and out.
This post is intended to be a sort of an index of the entire trip report which will be published over the days. In all earnestness, if I could do it, you can do it too!
Watch out inside for all the details of this #redcarpettrip
Shipra and myself just got back from a megatrip over 22 days, where we flew Singapore Airlines Suites Class, the Etihad Apartments, went to Los Angeles, Bora Bora, Las Vegas, Dallas, Washington D.C. and New York and had some amazing experiences.
This is a recap of the trip in pictures, while we get set to post an elaborate trip report for you, along with all the details!
Hello from the wonderful islands of Bora Bora! Shipra and I were looking forward to spending some time away from our respective workplaces, so we have been planning a trip largely on miles and points and status privileges over the course of the year.
Here’s what we have been up to so far!
Air India has been quietly coming up to speed with the times on their frequent flyer program. Just yesterday, they have launched new features such as Child Membership, and introduced a Primary Active membership at the base tier as well.
Some of the key changes include the inability to transfer your upgrade vouchers to anyone here on, as well as the pseudo move to revenue-based earning by linking percentage of miles earned to flown miles and the RBD multiplier. Hence, deep discounted tickets don’t get as many miles anymore!

Air India’s Flying Returns frequent flyer program is implementing new security measures to authenticate users, which includes a verification process for everyone, to prevent the creation of bogus accounts, and to weed out existing bogus accounts.
As a part of this measure, if you already have an Air India Flying Returns account, you should log into the account and provide the Air India team with information and certain identity documents to authenticate your account.
