I have a few questions. My flight will arrive at Hong Kong International Airport Terminal 1 at 7 pm, will I have enough time to catch the last ferry? If yes, where is the landing point for boarding? Do I need to go through customs?
I really appreciate any help you can provide.











I'm travelling from HK airport and would like to cross the border at Lo wu control point.
Can a taxi ride reach the control point? or I need to take a taxi to nearest station of metro first then take metro to Lo wu station in order to access the Lo wu control point?
Thanks











Will the Skypier operators accept visa cards .....or even cash in HK Dollars?
Thanks in advance
