In this situation, it is better if you depart from Guangzhou one day in advance and stay near the airport for one night. You can take the last direct train from Guangzhou East to Hung Hum then had to the airport. Or you can take a train to Shenzhen station first and then cross Luohu board before 00:00 at midnight then had to the airport. By the way, if your flight is for 7:10am, maybe it is better if you can be there at 4:30am.

The train runs everyday. There are 9 rides a day to East Station. You need to search by Hong Kong [Hung Hom] Station istead of West Kowloon. West Kowloon Station only has trains to South Station.

Asked by andre from INDONESIA | Aug. 27, 2019 00:38

Can we go to Hung Hom Station from Guangzhou East Station?

Is Hung Hom Station the same with West Kowloon Hongkong Station? Can we go to it from Guangzhou East Station? Because there are no online tickets sold from GUangzhou East Station. The only available online tickets depart from Guangzhou South Railway Station.
