AÉROPORT INTERNATIONAL DE HONG KONG

Located on the north coast of the island of Lantau and built on an artificial Island, Hong Kong International Airport is one of the most convenient airports in the world. He was part of one of the largest equipment projects ever undertaken in Hong Kong. The work began in 1993 and the opening of the airport took place in 1998. Nearly 1 000 ha were conquered on the streams. Two suspended bridges (1 377 m long), new roads and Airport Express, a high-speed train connect the island of Lantau Island to Kowloon and Hong Kong Island in about minutes. There are numerous restaurants and luxury shops within the airport. Wifi is free.

To reach Hong Kong, the most convenient and quickest solution is to take the train (Airport Express) for about HK $ 100, a free shuttle service connects your hotel to Kowloon and Central station. The taxi is much more expensive for Central, with about HK $ 300 and Tsim Sha Tsui, about HK $ 230. This means adding HK $ 5 for each bag. Finally, the most economical (but least practical) solution is bus, the A 11 and the A 12 serve Hong Kong island (HK $ 45), the A 21 serves Kowloon (HK $ 35). Pay attention, because bus drivers do not make the currency.

To reach Macao, ferries provide direct connections between the old Portuguese city and the airport.
