Even if you have that same day boarding pass, it’s not like SIN or USA where everyone is mixed, HKG is a dedicated (sterile) departures area. Once you’re through you’re immigration cleared, and having to get back to leave will require an escort.
im assuming this is the correct answer in my case but just wanted to check. If land in HKG from long haul flight on Friday afternoon and my short haul isn’t into 8:30 Saturday morning, could I access the J lounge Friday? Ideally we would hang out there until closing time. Then enter again when they open and save paying for a hotel. What do you all think?
