828 departure
 
Well I knew this would happen sooner than later, but I have an event in Toronto this Monday so my office booked me on CX Sunday night. I dont mind the 230am departure but am wondering what is there to do for 4 hours at HKG? How late is The Wing open? I dont mind the connection mid day between MNL and YYZ or my CX to BA mid night flights, but this is an extra 2.5 hours and there are just so many times I can watch CNN.

Any ideas????:confused:

Assuming that you are connecting from MNL, not originating in HKG?

If you were originating in HKG, I wouldn't take the airport express until the last train.

If at the airport, the lounge should stay open until the last flight departs.

Yes the Wing is open until the last flight departs and was confirmed by a friend of mine who took the flight recently. He hung out at the Wing until around 1:40 am.

I'm afraid you'll be stuck at the airport vicinity as your layover time is cutting it too close to head into town.

I assume you meant 826 not 828 (which has been defunct ever since September).

I think you might just find another FTer onboard that flight in F. ;)

I apologize it is 826 but I guess 12 years of 828 is hard to get out of my system. And yes there should be atleast 2 FTer's in F.

So how do I recognize you!? I'll be carrying a black Mont Blanc wheelie bag, and prob wearing a dark suit, given that I'll be coming out of a long and dull 4 hour meeting in Hong Kong!
