1) Do I have enough time to go into the city for an early dinner and come back?
2) Will I be able to access CX F lounges at HKG?

Thank you! Hope everyone had a good New Year's celebration.
You most certainly can go into town for dinner and back. If you're taking the AEL, you only have to pay the ow fare.

You won't have access to the F lounge, but you can access The Arrivals lounge. You can drop your belongings there, go into town, back to the airport, and retrieve them there.

Why would they allow the op into the lounge if the next flight is not on oneworld or CX? Since you are a loyal Marco Polo member, you should know the terms and conditions of usage.
