To and from the airport, Hong Kong International Airport

Hong Kong International Airport is a megastructure located 35 km (22 mi) from the city. Before you navigate your way out of the airport, pick up some Hong Kong dollars from an ATM or exchange booth.

The best way to get to Central Hong Kong is via the high-speed Airport Express Link train for a fare of HK$180 (about US $23 at the exchange rate of US 13 cents to one Hong Kong dollar). Departing from inside the arrivals hall the journey takes about 25 minutes. The Mass Transit Railway (MTR) offers a free shuttle-bus service to major hotels. Franchised, air-conditioned buses (Airbus) take an hour or more to make the trip into town, but cost less at HK$40-$45.

If you need to grab a taxi from the airport, the journey to Central will take 45-60 minutes and costs HK$350-$400.
