Hi, I am thinking of staying overnight at the Novotel Citygate in HKG (right near airport), before a trade show at AsiaworldExpo the next, and then flying out to AKL at 6pm.

I know I can check in a day before at Airport Express stations, but dont feel like going all the way to Kowloon, or even Tsing Yi just to do this. What time do the counters open at HKG for NZ?

Plan is to checkout at 9:30 go to airport, check in, head over to the show at 10am, make my way back to airport at 2pm, hit the lounge for shower, and then do some last minute shopping before boarding at 5:30. Possible?

Lastly what lounge does NZ use for J?

thx
