There is no entrance fee of the island, and you just need to pay for the ticket of the attractions you will visit on the island. The standard cable car of a single trip will coat HK$86/adult, and HK$125/adult for a round trip. The crystal cable car of a single trip will charge HK$130/adult and HK$188/adult for a round trip.
Notably, the cable car service is suspended for around 5 months from 9 January 2017 for the Rope Replacement Project.

Upon landing, take bus no.E21 from Airport (Ground Transportation Centre) to Fu Tung Shopping Centre, Tat Tung Road. It takes around 20 mins on the way. The ticket fare is 4 HKD per person. Then walk to the Lower Cable Car Terminus. Take the cable car to the destination directly.
