Cathay Pacific Asia Miles - STPC

So I qualify for STPC :D and Cathay put me up at the Royal View hotel. Given that this is no where near public transportation, I want to switch to another hotel.

Any recommendations on who I should be contacting? MPC or reservations? Or is there some special number for this?

Thanks!

Usually you take what the airline gives you. They may have an alternate one but you need to contact either res or your travel agent if he booked it for you.

If none available, then you're stuck with that. CX would provide transport to/from hotel too.
The point of a STPC is for you to stay overnight as there is no immediate connecting flight available. It's not for you to go out for shopping!

It's a great hotel so don't know why you're complaining about...And it has complimentary transfers to Tsim Sha Tsui!

What is Cathay's criteria for STPC?
Which hotel do they usually use at HKG?

When there is no connecting flight available within same day of arriving flight. One of which must be a long haul flight. There are a few hotels CX uses. Don't know which ones exactly. Either like the one at Tsing Yi or some airport ones.

Could always get the Panda Hotel in Tsuen Wan with a horde of tour groups :)

Usually I don't worry about being able to go into the city but my layover is exactly 24 hours. Talk about not being able to make the MCT.
