Hong Kong Guide (Thread 30)

[prettynvain]

Air Hong Kong is not a passenger airline but a cargo/freight carrier. It's owned by CX and DHL. Baka you meant Dragon Air (KA) which is also owned by CX.   

i think prettybarbie is referring to Hong Kong Airline.

Hi mga sis! We're planning to visit HK on May. Kamusta po ang weather on that month? I'll bring my toddler to disneyland. And marami kayang tao nun? thanks!

[mama squeak!]

^^Hong Kong Airlines (HX) does not fly to Manila. Baka yung sister company pa nya na Hong Kong Express (UO) but they stopped flying to Manila since early 2012.

I just found out yesterday that i'm pregnant!  sana walang problem para tuloy parin hk trip namin this march. Naipanhako ka na kasi sa 3 yr old daughter ko and she's very excited! I have also booked the airfare and hotels. Slow pacing nalang siguro para di ako mashado mapagod. may konting changes din sa iti namin. I'm also thinking of switching from cebu pac to cathay pac para mas comfortable ako. Pero nanghihinayang din ako eh. I'll think about it first. 

[pampam]

Congrats princess Lorraine! I hope you will have a smooth pregnancy para tuloy pa rim ang hk bring mo na Lang si yaya para may help Sayo pag alaga sa eldest mo.

Hi everyone, I'm currently planning our HK trip. Sa Oct 29 pa naman kami pero nagsstart na ako maghanap ng guesthouse to stay in. Ask ko lang, ano mas recommended ninyo dito:
Cosmic Guesthouse
New Fiu Fai Guesthouse
Golden Crown Guesthouse

2 lang kami (couple) and major requirements include ensuite/private toilet and bath, near transpo location, allows luggage storage (8AM kasi dating namin and we plan on site seeing agad), with aircon, provides towels and toiletries.

Hope to get suggestions from you all... thanks!

^Yiu Fai kami nagstay and couple rin kami. Private ensuite with bath. Sobrang okay and I recommend it. May heater yung shower kaya hindi kami gininaw; around December kasi kami nagpunta. We'll go back there ulit this December (para malamig ulit) at dun ulit kami magsstay.

Sisses, mga kailan kaya nagsesale ang cebupac for flights this December? Ang layo pa pero excited na ako ulit.

[lilstar]

Sa Yui Fai na din ako nag pa book para sa Jan21-23. Mabilis mag reply sa email si Longson at mabilis din sila magconfirm ng payment through PayPal. Same rate pa din ata sila since 2010, HKD400  pa din ang per night/room for a double bed ensuit.  Sana maging ok din ang stay namin dun like the reviews.

Thanks sa info mga sis.

basta may HongKong sa name.  but never tried taht, i heard lang na budget airlines din ito eh. and no idea naman if kelan pa sila nag-stop ng flight to Manila. basta most domestic helper use this din daw.

Sis pampam, thanks so much sis!  walang yaya yung daughter ko sis eh ordinary kasambahay lang naghehelp sa akin magbantay sa kanya. Ok lang kung kaming 3 lang ni hubby. Hoping for the best talaga para tuloy hk trip namin this march. My daughter is very excited to go to disneyland! We'll be staying at hk disneyland hotel for 3 nights and 2 nights at marco polo gateway hotel.  good thing i have decided to book at gateway hotel para sa harbour city nalang ako magshop.  nakabook narin ako ng breakfast and dinner buffet at enchanted garden.  i wanna eat maxims city hall and tim ho wan in ifc mall din sana kayanin ko. Very convenient lang naman mtr dun.

is it really that inconvenient to go to macau upon arrival in hkia? the travel agents that i've talked are encouraging me to just go to macau on my 2nd or 3rd day in hk instead of going directly from the airport.

[vanekski]

Hello sissies! Sa april 25 ang hk trip namin n hubby pero fully booked na agad sa golden crown. May naka try na ba sa inyo sa silka far east near tsuen wan mtr? Kase ito lang ang hotel na medyo mura and ayaw din ni hubby sa hostel.. Thanks po http://

[little_princess]

^ we did this once, it wasn't that bad naman kaya lang we had to make sure may ferry na aalis when we arrive. may connection naman from the hkia pero longer travel time nga lang.

[chocolat]

^ thanks sis! i need to confirm my itinerary to the agent kasi...

[chocolat]

^ etd @ hkia is 9:55am. yes, we'll be staying overnight in macau, i told the travel agent that i prefer to stay at hotel sintra. i read kasi in the macau thread that it is a nice choice

[omneecka]

hi sisses!

ok lang bang magpa-umaga sa HKIA? may mga nag-i-stay ba dun overnight?
arrival kc namin is mga 10pm and plan namin na sa hkia na lang magpa-umaga.
and may showers ba sa CRs ng HKIA?

thank u!

[prettybarbie]

yung public toilet sa airport walang shower, pede kayo magpalipas ng oras sa mga upuan sa airport pero baka di kayo maging komportable sa dami ng tao at haba ng oras

may 24 Hour shower facilities (HKD 150) and private lounge (private resting area) sa Level 7, Departures West Hall, Terminal 1 pero may bayad to ha...

•HK$400 (2 hrs Lounge Package)
• HK$580 (5 hrs Lounge Package)
•HK$700 (10 hrs Lounge Package)
• HK$600 (3 hour Private Rest Area)
 
pero kung babayad ka lang din mas okay siguro kung kumuha na lang kayo ng murang hotel sa labas
 
 Update: Sabi ni hubs meron daw resting lounges sa Departures Level near Gate 21, 26, 34, 41 and 61.

Hi, pa ask naman po ulit mga sis, what's the most comfy mode of transpo from HKIA to Holiday inn Nathan Rd? We're group of 7 adults with a 2yr old toddler & a senior citizen, tapos may luggage/suitcase and pram/stroller kaming bitbit.  If mag taxi kmi how much kya fare per taxi kasi I heard may add'l pay ang luggage and stroller sa taxi.  Malapit lang ba A21 bus stop sa Holiday Inn? pang ilang bus stop kaya sya? TIA
