If I will land at HKIA at 10:15 in the morning, which train should I take?

Answered by Jerome from UK | Nov. 15, 2018 00:47

Well, I suppose you need to choose a train after 1:30pm as you need about 1 hour to exit the airport and it takes about 30min on the way by Airport Express line to reach the railway station. You also need at least 1.5 hours for ticket collection of the rail service. So you would need a trip after 1:30pm. If transfer in Guangzhou, you can consider the G6542.
