Until I come to Hong Kong!! The weather here in the UK is awful, raining, cold, and miserable!! By the way, I am having to catch a bus to The Empire Hotel WanChai and arriving in at 1615hrs. Subject to traffic, how long does it take from Airport to Wanchai, any ideas?

And remember, drinks on me for anyone who wants to meet up!

Cheers

The fastest way from the airport to wanchai would be a cab.... which is about HK$300. Then there's the airport express, HK$100 to Central, which takes 30minutes. Then staying on the tube, another 10 minutes to Wanchai.

I alwayed enjoyed the view on the bus at night from the airport. Would take a little more than an hour to Wanchai, but it's only $20 or so.

The best way is to take the airport express to the HK station and catch a taxi to the hotel. Otherwise, you can check at the counter when you are in the arrival hall and see if the hotel link (or airport link, I don't remember) bus stop by the hotel.

Reese, it's easy to find the bus at the airport. There are carts for your luggage free when you get to baggage claim and you can wheel them out to any transportation you take.

It's a breeze. Max one hour to your hotel unless there is serious traffic for some reason.

Traffic jam is not that serious in HK. In case something happen. Like accidents....
