A first-hand review of the American Express Platinum Lounge at Delhi Airport’s Terminal 3. Accessible if you hold an American Express card issued around the world. Platinum/Centurion card holders get complimentary access.
Le Meridien Mahabaleshwar opened their doors on May 1, 2015. Here is the first review of the resort which is an impressive property set in the midst of nature, and perfect for a weekend retreat.
One of the two lounges at Bangalore Airport’s domestic operations, this one serves a delicious meal and has a lot of space for the travellers. Here is a review of my visit to this lounge.
The Carnations Lounge at Mumbai’s Terminal 1C is the busiest lounge at Mumbai Airport’s domestic operations. We review a recent visit to the lounge and present the offerings at this lounge
IHG’s only resort property in India, which turned out into a very underwhelming stay with a devil may care attitude from the staff. They are in the hotels business, not in the hospitality business, my take!
Overall a nice stay at the Park Hyatt Hyderabad which located in the posh Banjara Hills locality. Here is a review of the suite and all the benefits I got courtesy Hyatt Gold Passport.
Over the last year, ever since Mumbai’s Terminal 2 was opened for public use, I used to have access to the Clipper Lounge via the airline or the Priority Pass or somehow.

Vistara, the new full-service Indian carrier that is a joint venture between Tata Group of India and Singapore Airlines, took to the skies yesterday. I have been looking forward to this for a very long time, since Vistara has promised to keep differentiated service as a cornerstone of their strategy. Like I said when Vistara made an initial product reveal, Vistara is hoping to be the Louis Vuitton of Indian Aviation. At the event, I wondered if they really were doing justice to their product with the reveal, because everything they said looked like just words then.
