Last November, I was lucky to grab Cebu Pacific's seat sale from Clark to Hongkong.
The newly renovated
DMIA awed me. Ang ganda. Bago ang tiles. Mas madami ng check-in
counters. Ngunit kaunti lamang ang mauupuan. Hindi din nakasindi ang mga
aircon dahil 4am pa lang. Malinis din ang mga cr. Ang counter ng Cebu
Pacific ay nasa pinaka dulo mula sa may mga upuan kaya medyo malayo ang
nilakad namin para mag check-in. Pagdating sa Immigration Counter, mas
marami na din. Mas mabilis ang bawat proseso. I would not mind paying
the 550 terminal fee provided the services remains as it is.
The procedure remains the same. After checking-in and
paying the travel tax and terminal fee, fill-up the embarkation card.
Bring your own ballpen as you will still need to fill up something
inside the plane. Then proceed to clear the immigration and pre-departure area.
Boarding time is 6:35am and we left DMIA at exactly 7:05am as scheduled. After 2 hours, we
finally reached Hongkong International Airport. After clearing the
immigration we got our bags and bought the octopus card. Hongkong uses
octopus cards as form of payment for transportation and also can be use at different establishments. This card is sold for HK$150 with an initial value of HK$100. The HK$50 is refundable upon returning the card. They only accepts cash at the airport.
We did not take the airport express train because of limited budget. It cost HK$90. We took the bus A21 going to city for HK$33.
Paglabas ng airport,
sinalubong kami ng lamig. Malamig na panahon ang nadatnan namin. Good
thing we searched the weather before going to HK kaya nakapaghanda kami
sa damit.
1 hour ang duration ng
biyahe ng bus mula airport hanggang sa Nathan Road where our hotel was
located. We checked-in and took our meals and started exploring Hongkong.

Hi. Thanks to your blog. I enjoyed reading and learning about HK. I even booked your recommended guest house ;) Ask ko lang po magkano po ba ang daily budget na kailangan i-set per pax (for food and transpo excluding the attractions). Hope you can help me. Thanks a lot ;) Aaron
Hi Aaron,
Thank you for reading my blog. Dahil family kaming umalis, at gastos ni mommy ang food, hindi kami masyadong nag budget sa food. Pero more or less po per person you need to budget at leat 500 to 1000 per day. depende po kung saan kayo kakain. Madalas kami kumain sa McDo at sa mga 7/11 po.
Enjoy your Hongkong trip po.
