For starters the baggage belt info displayed on the flight's IFE was totally wrong. For my flight it said it would be on carousal 11 when it was actually on 7 (something like that)

So then my entire flight must have gone through immigration and nobodies' bags came out; a few passengers actually went to to the baggage service area thinking their bags were lost before my bag popped out onto the carousal.

There was no lightning warning or anything of that sort.

I used to think a couple of the second-tier cities here in China were bad, but HKG is a whole another level it seems.
