Hong Kong (HKG) Airport

Hong Kong International Airport HKG was named by ACI, the Airports Council International, as the World's Best Airport for the fourth consecutive year, and by both Skytrax and TTG Travel Awards for the eighth time, while RTRS bestowed it the "Asia-Pacific Airport Efficiency Excellence Award'. All in all, HKG received in 2011 nine 'Best Airport' awards.  Half of the world's population can be reached from this Airport in less than five hours by air. In May 2012 the Airport Authority Hong Kong pledged to make its Airport 'the world's greenest' one - its goal being to lower carbon emissions by 25 percent towards 2015.

Hong Kong Airport was built on reclaimed land of the island of Chek Lap Kok, off Lantau Island, located in the Zujjiang Kou inlet of the South China Sea, between the cities of Macau and Hong Kong.  It is accessible from the main land via North Lantau Highway 8, leading to Airport Road.

With 2 long runways (a third one is in the planning stage) and an estimated 56.5 million passengers in 2012 , Hong Kong International is primary hub for its flag carrier Cathay Pacific, and to Dragonair, Hong Kong Express and Hong Kong Airlines, and is secondary hub for Air New Zealand.  Air New Zealand, Qantas, United & Virgin Atlantic airlines use Hong Kong Airport as a stopover point for their long-distance flights. The Airport is served by a multitude of national & international airlines, offering non-stop flights throughout mainland China, and direct and connecting flights to all parts of the globe.

To get from the Airport to your destination, use the Multi-Modal Transport Center: Passengers looking for point-to-point transport services can use the cross-boundary limousine to get to their PRD destinations directly.
Hong Kong Airport is a gateway hub to China. To meet growing demand, it continues to strengthen its integrated, multi-modal transport network with the Mainland, especially the PRD (Pearl River Delta)
1. The Airport Express train runs every 12 mins, 5:50am-1:15am, between the Airport and Hong Kong's City center, a trip of 24 mins. (Kowloon & Hong Kong Stations offer free advance check-in 90 mins to a day).  To get to Disneyland Resort, change to the Tung Chung Line at Tsing Yo Station, getting off at Sunny Bay Station.

3. The SkyPier cross-boundary ferry service connects passengers between the PRD and international destinations via HKG, in comfort and without going through immigration and customs formalities in Hong Kong.  Six PRD ports – Shenzhen Shekou and Fuyong, Dongguan, Zhongshan, Zhuhai and Macau – currently offer these speedy cross-boundary arrangements. Passengers can even pre-check their baggage and obtain their boarding pass at Fuyong, Shekou, Macau and Dongguan Humen.
