i am surprised to hear with so many countries of A+ category, govt can let anyone fly in at capacity of 1916 at Pennys Bay. this vs 11k of hotel quarantine spot now.

for 7 day quarantine, any given rolling 1 day would have free capacity of circa 275 units. Similarly if on average most hk quarantine are say 17 days (some 14/21) thats means any rolling 1 day free capacity of 650 units. HK already struggled with hotel rooms (at 650/day freed up) so if more countries go to A+, 275 units/day at PB will hit the ceiling very quick

Nov21 HKIA data showed 120k pax handled (departure/arrival/transit are double counted). so say 1/4 is number arriving a month (30k) which comes to average 1k new arrival everyday. so basically for 1k arrival a day, struggles already with 650/day available hotel room, not sure how the 275/day availablr PB will cope up.
