I won't be going full day. Maybe frm 2 to 8pm. Should be sufficient. Might miss some parades but it's fine for us. At least I would have some time in the morning for others.

So I can skip meals there by Makan outside b4 going to Disney hahahaha.

I gonna book casa. Judging by the pictures I m gonna have a hard time in the toilet but should be fine. My rates is only rm198 per night, can't complain much for this price.
*
paid so high yet not going whole day?
i'm on casa too but i booked family room and theres absolutely no pic of it
so i dn't know what the room or the toilet looked like

u stay in Casa hotel right? y dun u take MTR to ur hotel instead? only 1 min from MTR to ur hotel only wor.. u mention u gt total 10 pax. don't u feel if u took bus wif luggage's is a lil inconvenient? even their MTR dy packed n crowded wif ppl..
*
MTR is 2X more expensive
the bus also only stop across the road of the hotel
and luggage...well..all hand carry, go HK all hand carry...come back "maybe" will have bigger luggage that need to go to cargo

I agreed.  Snacks/light meals eg sandwiches about HKD22, set dinner at restaurant (main course + dessert) @HKD 98.
*
22 + 98 = 120
looks like the coupon seem to be worthed depending what u eat or the coupon can be used for though

never buy any coupon b4.. can't compare.. in my opinion, opt for western food. cz d taste can't run much eventho nt tasty.. haha.. dun ever try the japanese ramen. very very salty
*

cuz back to airport maybe will use MTR cuz maybe going to citygate

So but i managed to get Macau at its cheapest rate. So i only going HK, although i will be flying to Macau and depart/return via HK. lol~

somemore i saw june so near already...AA still have promo price
and its abit unfair cuz frm KL to HK is 4 hour but RM500-700 only....from KK(BKI) to HK only 3 hours but need RM 1k++

Hahahaha hard to say, kk fewer flights compared to kl. so they have to mark up high Margin to cover fixed operating cost I guess. More frequent flights can earn more lol.....

its just 1 extra flight for KL only...price difference so big

I had a look at the site.  Though it says "apartment", looks like some of it are similiar to rooms from hostel/guesthouse, like those housed in a commercial building. 

Another thing is, are these "apartment" licensed to rent out?  Have to be careful, coz the illegal's one does not see to safety rules such as fire precaution..
*
hmm..i dn't think so
cuz 1 of the "yau ma tei" one kinda interest me and i went in
and stated there "if security asked, say you're my friend".....not sure abt "license" part but its kinda like i bought a hse and i rent it out under the radar to earn money

guys, my fren is going to hongkong end of this month...
at first, i tried arrange itinerary for her...but end up, she has no confident as she dont speak chinese.

anyone of you have any local travel agent, which could assist her.
please PM me.. muslim traveller...
4 days 3 night (flight booked)

for me i think no need arrange itinerary...u just need to write down "how to go" to what place
that includes what transport to use and which direction...to those places that "must" go in HK
thn ask her to go natural(near where go where)
i also going but no...i dn't have itinerary...my paper only stated how to go where and where to eat only
to go where and when, plan when reach there...cuz sometime its unpredictable...time and weather

just exit from Mongkok MTR E1, walk along Nathan main road (South bound) about 300m (5 min). The Sun Hing Building is on your right hand side as shown in the picture. As you enter the lobby, there are lifts at both left and right sides., take the left on to 14th floor. Exit from lift, turn left and look for DingDing signage. If you are not sure, ask the security uncle.

or search for Sun hing building and walk there

for CTS...can use google and their website have stated their branches and location
