    Everyone knows of the great shopping and theme parks, but Hong Kong also has awesome hiking trails through the mountains, nature preserves and bird sanctuary. Well worth the time to decompress. ⛰

    Big airport with many shops and hey it's a great place to browse around while waiting for your flight. However to found your gate for boarding it's different story make sure you're able to walk fast!!

    Downstairs from Gate 23 is a FREE ‘Relaxation Room’ you can sleep in, but it only has 14 chaises. If you need a spot to snooze, come early or in off-peak times to snag your spot.

    Don't be in a hurry to leave! This is actually one of the best places in town to work for free. Fast, reliable, unlimited internet and comfy seating. Get a coffee and get to work.

    Cathay Checkin = B, Dragon Air = H. You can self-checkin at either, but only drop your bag at the correct one. Since they codeshare, they could at least put the counters next to each other!

    Airport Express is the best way to go to city centre. It is about 25 min to HK station. Between 00:20 and 04:50 am N11 bus is the only choise.

    Visit the Air France KLM lounge at gate 60. They serve Pork Cheese. Well, that's how 'kaaskroketten' has been translated. Envision milking a gilt and make a pork cheese. Dutch innovation! Dig in!

    U need to come HKG earlier than other airport. Because it is very large and need to use tram.. it could take more time than u have expected. There are not many restaurant when it comes to it’s size.

    This is of course the airport I've visited most and one of my favourites. Large, lots of shops and cafes, efficient and clean. But it gets busy all the time and may take some time to wait for luggages

    What's great about Hong Kong Airport is that there's an outlet nearby, with Factory Stores from Nike, Adidas, Burberry and other shops. Spend some time there in case your flight is delayed.

    Modern architecture and spacious. Finding your way should be easy following the signs... only if you know where you must go; Always make sure to check prior to your departure which terminal to go to.

    If you have a short stopover, take the S1 bus to Tai Chung Citygate outlet. That's the best way to spend a couple of hours before your next flight

    Huge airport. Be sure to check in and head for immigration and security check early to avoid missing your flights since the distance from your check in/immigration to your ACTUAL gate can be very far!

    Why does HK intl Airport paint gates number in yellow which are originally in white ? Norman Foster must feel current practice sad against original design concept.

    Use Airport Express to go to downtown. It is cheap. Fast. Convenient. (Unless your hotel offers shuttle or limousine service. It is my fav route back to the airport. In town check in and off you go.

    If you are heading for Discovery Bay North Plaza by taxi aim for the blue, if not available go for the red taxi. (they (red) might complain since it is not a good deal for them, but must go there)

    If you are a Hong Kong permanent resident and have another passport, you can enter through either line for the initial check. Pick the shorter one and head to the HK resident line once you're inside.
