Its been 5 eventful months being a part of the BoardingArea community. The Journey is the Reward, and I am trying to make sure that I give you enough of my personal journey stories which should help you with your travels and enough of the Rewards which you can earn yourself on the travels. To engage with you more and often, I’ve been on Twitter from the word go and you can find me at @Livefromalounge.

There have been enhancements to the site going on an ongoing basis, and I thought it would be an idea to share with all of you the interesting things happening around here. I can promise you this is not like an enhancement to a loyalty program where they take away benefits to call them for your own good!

Take a look at the top mast on the site, and you’ll find new sections that have popped up over time:

While I will continue to answer Reader Questions in the various comments sections and on email, I also invite you to post your questions on the wall of the Reader Questions section, where the answers will be up for you and everyone else to see in one place.

The Indian Travel Deals segment is to help travellers from India and in India to travel well, and I intend to put up the deals I am aware of at the site in this section. So keep checking back to see interesting deals there. Like the Singapore A380 ride being open for booking till 15th December 2011.

To keep bringing the blog entries to you regularly, we have also enabled the capability to receive an email a day from Live From a Lounge, with all the stories of the day in your mailbox, so that you can catch up on the go!

Be assured, there is a server at the back end which generates all the emails and automatically sends it out. I have no access to email accounts individually and you won’t receive spam mail from this account! You will find this on the top right section of the site.

And finally, the Swag Giveaway. Here is how it works. I’d like to hear from you guys about what would you like to hear from me more and more on this blog (keep it travel and aviation related :D). So ‘Like’ us on Facebook, and drop us your suggestions there. The best suggestion gets a BoardingArea T-shirt and 2 other entries receive BoardingArea pens!

The giveaway is on till 30th November 2011 10 PM Indian Standard Time, and I will select the entries on 1st December 2011 and announce them on the site here!
