QUOTE(pisces88 @ Sep 13 2011, 06:45 PM) cheap branded if you dont mind off season sales, can go to Citygate mall (tung chung MTR). when you're there can sit tram visit the Big buddha too. another mall is Fashion Walk, there got lot of branded boutiques, some of the clearance items very worth it. hmm need to take train to other station to get a bus? i thought at the airport itself..will see how..tq!if you wan new season branded stuff, can shop at any mall, basically they are priced the same. Added on September 13, 2011, 6:48 pm that depends on your shopping power.. i overspent the last time i was there. bring some USD just in case, MYR to HKD rate there very poor, around RM425 for 1k HKD. food there priced around 25-50HKD per meal with drinks if you eat at normal restaurants. MCD below HKD30 per meal Added on September 13, 2011, 6:53 pm i forgot the rate, but that should be the standard pricing. when i got off the plane, i board a train to get to another station, then from there u check which bus will pass by ur hotel. then just board the bus btw, liqour cheap in HK? |

QUOTE(pisces88 @ Sep 14 2011, 06:27 AM) hi..this is the reply from the hotel..meaning the b12 counter need to sit the transit to there, or just walk there ah? QUOTE Kindly be informed that the seat-in coach service from airport to hotel could be arranged at HKD140 net per person Seperately i will be taking MAS and the flight is 645pm..never take MAS..i understand there's a transit from KL Sentral, RM35/way. That transit ticket i can buy when i reach sentral?per trip. After clearing customs, approach Vigor Airport Shuttle Service Ltd(Counter B12 at Arrival hall B). A bus schedule is now attached for your reference. And, the payment could be settle upon departure. And to double confirm, go HK no need visa right? Just the passport? Sorry so many question, all my time for the past few weeks used for wedding planning, the whole trip plan has been put aside and the flight is tomorrow |

QUOTE(pisces88 @ Sep 15 2011, 12:59 AM) that time i went i bring along with me just in case, but if your hotel room got safe (which mine had), then can keep it there too.. Noted! Remember to bring extra money to shop! haha.. by the way, in case u wanna buy souvenir for friends from disney, HK's airport has a Disney shop for last minute shopping |

QUOTE(mugenz @ Sep 22 2011, 06:40 PM) cosmo kowloon? stayed there 6 nights and came back ystday. not bad considering they got hourly shuttle bus to langham(mongkok), china ferry terminal (tsim tsa tsui), kowloon airport express.. also walking distance to olympic station, easily accessible to sunny bay (interchange to disney) and tung chung (to the buddha thingy place).place is new and clean and exactly opposite 24hour McDonald's free wifi at the lobby as well.. Added on September 22, 2011, 9:47 pmand a stone throw to bus stand also..easy to get to any other place in HK but i guess transportation is easy in everywhere in HK.. but the plus point is i like their shuttle bus service.. everywhere i go..i take MTR back to mongkok station and wait for the shuttle bus to go back to hotel..
