According to flight stats, TK70 is on-time or early many occasions. So with this in mind I think you can make it through OK. Bags almost always come out quickly in HK, particularly if you're flying business since they're tagged priority.

My only concern would be the line at immigration, which at times can be 30 minutes long, but the time your flight arrives is before all the big overseas planes come in, so you should be ok there too.

I will be flying J with TK and the cut off time for baggage check in is 45min for Airphil Express. So i would have 55mins for immigration + picking my luggage and moving to Airphil Express check in counter. Any chance i could make it or should i just leave my luggage home(i wouldn't want to) or just stay the night at some of the Airport Hotels and travel the next day(wouldn't want that either)?
