Long connection time
Looking at flights with long connection times of 10+ hours
Does Cathay allow you to collect luggage as would need to book into airport hotel and would it make any difference passenger is disabled.

Regarding the timing, since you can circumvent the queues, the whole is often faster than the normal tracks, despite the use of (many) elevators.
To collect the luggage, you have to go land side, if your airport hotel is air side, that might be tricky, since a very early drop-off of your luggage for the next segment might be challenging, though HKG locals can maybe tell more about that.
If you want to go into Hong Kong (or stay land side at the airport), I do expect, you can ask the check-in to short-check your luggage to HKG. Wheelchair support is all the way to the curb, including luggage collection. I hope this gives you sufficient info.
