Is there more than one ferrry operator from Macau to HKIA?
I've heard that some ferries occasionally get canceled, which means that it's risky to take the last one...
My flight leaves at 23.45h from HKIA and I'm considering to book the last Turbojet leaving Macau at 19.45h but if for some reason it were to be cancelled it would seriously jeopardize my travel plans.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Like, competition? In Macau?
Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!

(Actually, there are ferries by another operator from Cotai, but they stop even earlier.)

You could check in at HK Airport Express station for a 23:45 flight up until 22:15. So leaving Macau at 19:45 is in plenty of time to go via Sheung Wan if necessary - you'd even have time for dinner in Central on the way!

The last one will not be canceled, but delays may occur.

One can go from HKIA directly to Macau via ferry without going through immigration of HK. Is there such option going via the newly built HMZ Bridge since it starts from the airport at HK?
