Round up: Mileage Mentor MasterClass & Points & Pints Delhi NCR

by Shipra 4 Comments

It has been a hectic few weeks here at LiveFromALounge. Apart from all the great things happening in the miles & points + travel world which we are trying to keep you up to speed with, there was also tonnes happening behind the scenes around here. Like you know, we’ve been busy with the Mileage Mentor MasterClass, which happened in Mumbai twice over this month. Also, we added on the Points & Pints Meetup to Mumbai.

Last week, we took the Mileage Mentor MasterClass & Points & Pints to Delhi NCR for the first time over. We tried hosting Points & Pints in Delhi NCR last year, but it did not work out because we could not find a suitable location in the short time we had.

The Mileage Mentor Masterclass first. It has been our goal to educate people as much as we can to use their miles and earn their miles wisely. Miles don’t just have to come from flying, they can also come from household shopping and other stuff. That is why we put in many hours every day on this blog to bring you the freshest content possible.

On Saturday, we conducted the first MasterClass in Delhi NCR, and the third one this month altogether. Here are some pictures!

The session ran for a good 4.5 hours. Of course, there had to be an after event selfie. 

What gives me tremendous happiness is that more and more women travellers are coming in for these workshops as well. The Delhi MasterClass had three women travellers joining us.

People came in from Ahmedabad, Agra and Chennai as well! I am hoping we could add some value to their lives. Of course, all of this won’t have been possible without the support of our points man Ashwant.

Here is what our attendees had to say.

After the long day, we headed out for a drink with Delhi & Gurgaon’s Miles Collectors at Points & Pints Delhi NCR.

It was an enthusiastic bunch which turned up. We heard about all sorts of stories and raised a toast to all the travellers around town.

Of course, this evening would have not been possible without the generous support of our friends at EazyDiner and Quaff Microbrewery. Quaff is perhaps one of the best microbreweries in the entire Delhi + Gurugram area, and we had our hearts set on them as a venue ever since I first had their Indian Pale Ale many moons ago. They are in a quaint corner of the Cyber Hub, so do find them while you are there for a pint.

As for EazyDiner, they were more than wonderful and helpful as well, just as you’d expect a hotelier-run venture to be. They helped us with fixing up the venue, apart from making sure everything went smoothly at the venue, they also surprised people with goodie bags. I think they are the UberLux of restaurant booking apps in India, and if you haven’t partaken in their EatOut festival at 50% off, you still have a few days to try that out.

From here, I am so happy that we are almost running full workshops. If you want to join us, we have a couple of more workshops coming up in the days ahead before we break for the festive season. Here they are, along with a link to buy tickets:

Look forward to seeing you in Hyderabad this weekend and Bangalore in a couple of weeks.

  1. Guys what would be amazing is if you could “box” the learnings of the sessions as a course and sell it. Some of us who can’t make the meeting, can benefit from your wisdom this way.
