With my trip off to Beijing tonight, I’ll be leaving work a little early to reach the airport for my 7pm flight.
I’m lucky enough however for my airline to have intown check in. So, up early this morning and at hong kong station, catch the lift upsairs to the airport check in section, swipe my octopus (my watch), deduct the money for airport express, walk up to the check in counter and usual clearance. Done!
Now tonight when I leave work, I don’t need to bother with check in, just straight through to the gate. This is also a bigger advantage as my airline has check in at terminal 2 and the flight from T1, no need to transit both!
My work collegues don’t like the price of airport express, given a bus will be $30 and airport expess is $100, but one of them handed me a half price voucher making it more than worth while!
