Thank you.
I am downloading the HK Taxi app as that would be my first choice. I will face the same kind of thing from my Sunday afternoon destination then from my hotel to the West Kowloon Station Monday morning. And again, a like scenario may develop based on where my sponsor dumps me the next day coming in from China.
