I have used my card once and found it fantastic, no queue at all. That time I was alone.
I will be travelling early May with my girlfriend and wondering what my chances of her skipping the queue with me (she doesnt have a card).
Has anyone tried it with a cardless partner?

Probabaly not a problem anymore as we have echannel for HKIA card holder that you can sign-up your passport with.
Welcome to join local Hong Konger that normally spend 20 minutes simply waiting for their luggage as the echannel or manned immigration always have no queue. And for HK-er, a kind remind is that manned channel are faster than echannel when no queue!

Just arrived at Chek Lap Kok about 3 hours ago. Went through the Frequent Visitor e-channel but this time my proof-of-entry was not printed on adhesive paper.
My question is:
Did the Immigration Dept merely run out of adhesive paper and I still have to staple the proof-of-entry to my passport? Or is it no longer required to attach the proof-of-entry to my passport (since Immigration will have my entry details on computer anyway)?
Thanks.

I just went through CLK again earlier this week, both coming and going, as I took a short trip to BKK.
I stopped at the Frequent Visitor e-channel Enrolment Office and asked about the arrival printout. The response was, no, the Landing Slip no longer needs to be affixed to the passport. However, I was advised to keep it readily available in the event I needed to show proof of when I entered HK.
I then proceeded to ask whether I need to retain the Landing Slip after departing HK. The response to that was, it's up to me. Hong Kong Immigration does not impose a requirement to keep the Landing Slip after departing HK; however, I was told some people may wish to keep the Landing Slip to have a record of their travel.
Now, on a different matter, but still concerning the Frequent Visitor program, as of this writing, there is no Frequent Visitor e-channel lane in Terminal 2. I flew to BKK on TG, and since their check-in is in Terminal 2, I naturally proceeded to Immigration in Terminal 2, where instead of being able to use the e-channel, I had to use the regular Visitor lane, where the Immigration officer asked to see my Landing Slip, plus he asked me to fill out a Departure Card.

Does anyone knows what is the operating hours of the enrolment office? I have a friend who has a late night into HK Airport at around midnight and wondering if the e-channel enrolment office is still open for processing of enrolment? Thanks!

I went to the enrollment office yesterday and the whole process took about 5 minutes from start to finish. Very efficient, especially compared to IRIS enrollment in the UK!
