Checking in at HKG
Question for anyone that's checked in at HKG with NW.
This time in HKG, I'm staying in a hotel on Hong Kong Island, not Kowloon. So it's slightly longer to Chek Lap Kok. My fiancee and I plan to take the Airport Express. For anyone that's checked in here, does anyone recommend checking in at the Airport Express station? I've seen those little boothes and I want to know if they are reliable.
(Oh as an aside, I think the Shangri-La gave me a freebie with my NW gold elite card. They credited me with 1,000 miles, not the usual 500.
)

FWIW, if you do web check-in, you can check your luggage at Business/FC at the terminal. Saves a bunch of time for the long walk to the gate.
