Empress,
It's not worth it (if you're still thinking of it). Biz class is 2 4 2 believe it or not (feels like economy!)..
No good unless you've had a particularly bad day and need to get quietly bombed in which case skip the meal and ask for the wine, after the 3rd refill they get the idea
And 2 hrs is loads of time in HKG - just go to the transit desk. In TPE departure tax now included in the ticket..
And what are you doing posting in the wilderness down here ??
Will call you later...
