Not surprising, at over 35,000 square feet the place is huge

Where are you off to/coming back from?

From Taipei was testing some funny route

The Bridge is not bad either! Have a huge view of the tarmac and runway~

I were in The Bridge last week, The Pier better!

The Bridge is great except that it's always so crowded, including my last visit in June 2016. The newly reopened Pier should be much better in this regard considering the size.

In term of crowded, The Wing the worst, took 20mins for my wantan mee. In term of size, the Arrival lounge is the most pathetic haha, but good for a quick bite n grab few bottle of mineral water, water in HK is so expensive...

Hahaha! Arrival Lounge is definitely small as hell compares to other CX lounges. But it is good for a quick shower especially after those long haul flights from USA/Europe

Thank yo for sharing the info, will plan to visit this lounge next month.

For arrival, can F class passenger using the Wing First?

I will reach HKG around 9pm, my next flight is next day morning 9am. Plan to have a shower and kill my time at The Wing First.

I assume you're holding a transit boarding pass for your next day flight @9AM? If yes, then you should be able to enter The Wing as it is in the departure area, whereas Arrival Lounge is in the arrival area after custom & luggage claim.

Does HK airport separate arrival from departure like most airports?....Or mixed like Changi and klia?....

Separate.. (Speaking for T1)

Most lounges at departure floor close after last flight, which I assume around 00:30?

Upon ur arrival, I dont think the transit gate let u enter because ur flight is next day.

Thank you for your reply. My situation is booth tickets are booked separately due to change of my schedule. The first ticket is F class and second ticket is J class. I read through the T&C of lounge admission criteria, I only can use the "The Arrival" lounge.

CX did reply me that luggage can be directed to my final destination during my check in at Tokyo, so I have the next boarding pass (J class) for next day and I only can go to The Wing or The Pier......without the "F" words




Dun know whether I can use The Wing or The Pier on that night or not when I reach Hong Kong? After the lounge closed, I will go to PPL (which operates 24 hours) to kill time and wait until 530am.

so glad that i finally found a malaysian forum discussing airline/hotels loyalty programs..

and also nice to see quite a few experts and seasoned J & F travellers imparting sound advice.

impressed how you guys managed to accumulate so many miles in Malaysia considering CC sign-up bonus are so unattractive.

btw tishaban, how in the world did u get the CSR despite being over 5/24 - so jealous! are u CPC by any chance?

dc travels -read your blog from the link you shared. very nice pics and i like the fairmont lake louise and banff springs pics.. are you a part time hotel connoisseur

Yeah I don't have many miles but mostly earned/converted via my SPG account

If you want to boost your miles, you can use KALIGO and Rocketmiles instead of agoda, booking.com and etc
Rocketmiles is the most higher miles offered if compare to others.

Else change your way to make a payment with swipe your CC for every transaction even RM1

For petrol only petron can earn and converted to enrich miles

just my cents

I have about 6,000 enrich miles expiring in Feb 2017. Any suggestion what to do with them?

Thank you Akurinduko. I have tried to use them but often the rates are quite high and I'm used to booking direct with the hotel chain.

Unless you're short of few k miles for a particular redemption it would be a good option to utilise the bonus first time miles i.e. 3k

Nevertheless thanks for pointing out again

@hwachong

I don't reckon there is much you can do. Will recommend redeeming golden lounge vouchers if that fancys you or hope for Enrich 1k points promo (very unlikely and unattractive destinations)

Just came across this enrich 30℅ off moments ago
