HKG arrival carousel data
Once the aircraft started descent into HKG for landing CX used to post the baggage arrival carousel and connecting flight gates on the screen.
Recently I have not seen this available - is this just lazy ISMs or has it been discontinued ? It was very handy info.
I have done a Search but cannot find anything relevant.

It was still available in December when I flew TPE-HKG but then again, that was the old looping non-AVOD system.
A bit off topic but HKIA seems to have adjusted the Flight Information Display Boards, gate screens and baggage carousel screens to make it so that the operating airline flight number always shows while only the codeshares change (if multiple airlines codeshare). I personally like it since I used to constantly hear people asking why the flight number is different.

I once saw people flying HKG PVG and connect onto BA showing at IFE (not baggage claim though)
HKG NRT I see quite a few JL connection but forgot if baggage claim was shown.
