Because of ease of getting flights from the UK, it makes more sense to base ourselves out of HK, rather than trying to do a fancy open0jaw itinerary.

Zuji prices out a lot higher than CXHolidays btw...
If you are a family, those packages are not good option because they charge a lot for kids - even though some hotels don't charge for children. Also if you want any extra nights, you pay a lot for it.

We normally travel from HK when visiting there, and we found it cheaper to arrange the package ourselves because we can score points on flights and hotels.
