Whether a BP can be issued so far ahead of a 10:30 departure the next morning is the issue.
If you can't get a BP to get you to the departure area there is a paid lounge airside with sleeping facilities for rent.
HKG is one big terminal, The separation of terminal 1 and 2 is for the check in counters. Even if you check in at terminal 2 you end up in the same terminal for departure.
Ahh, good info to know, I"m hoping since it will be less than 24 hours until departure I will be able to have my return boarding pass.
I guess I'll find out Saturday night and will post my results here.
