That said if I was the OP I wouldnt take the bus with 2 very heavy bags since theres little room for them on heh bus and if very heavy who will pick them up to put on the shelf.
there's a roundtrip bus ticket across multiple days?
if you're buying a single ticket to the main airport express stops, klook is cheap... if you have a late flight leaving hkg, you may be able to use intown checkin and dont need to carry it to the airport
but nothing beats the bus in terms of price and convenience (though it may take longer and stops more)
you have to hoist the bag up the bus (pretty low floor), and place it on the bottom luggage rack (raise it above the bottom bar). wait for the next bus if it's crowded
trying to find a better video:
(4:30: move bag up to bus)
(5:00: move bag onto the luggage rack, bottom part filled first)
(cctv at 0:58)
