Question related to this topic:

We arrive on Dragonair flight #209 into HKG at 10:25PM on Tues night.

We depart on CX flight #888 at 1:00AM on Wed morning (about 2.5 hours after landing)

NOTE: Separate AA award tickets not on the same reservation. (also US citizens & passports)

I assume I have to collect my bags, and recheck into CX.

#1 Please tell me this is enough time... (granted not much room for flight delays).

#2 From what I read, I quality for a Visa transit waiver since less then 7 days. (But I do have to exit customs I assume to collect my bags and recheck in)

Please tell me where my missing key points are....I know I have over looked some.


THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE ADVICE......I really would appreciate any suggestions.
