The APPT Macau: The First Texas Hold’em Poker Tournament in China!

[speedgun]

My flight arrives at HK airport at 18:10. Is there absolutely NO hope that I can get on the 19:10 ferry to Macau? Would it help if I carry all my baggage with me?

Everyone is missing the most important question. Is the booze free for tournament players? :P

One major correction to my posts:

If you are flying into Hong Kong Int'l Airport, do NOT go to the immigration hall to retrieve your own luggage. I understand that you will NOT be permitted to re-enter the transfer area and take the ferry from Sky Pier if you were to enter the immigration hall.

Go directly to the TurboJet Sea Express Ferry Transfer Desk in area "E1" on the arrival level (Level 5) to 1) buy your ferry ticket and 2) hand over your luggage claim tags to the ferry ticket clerk.

TurboJet Sea Express personnel will claim your luggage and put your luggage on the ferry.

If you are on the United Airlines nonstop flight from Los Angeles, you will need to pray that you don't encounter headwind so that you flight will arrive on time at 7:40pm. If the flight were to arrive after 8:30pm for whatever reason, you will likely miss the last ferry from Sky Pier at 10pm.

Several evening arrivals from North America are bunched together: United from Chicago arrives at 5:55pm, United from San Francisco arrives at 6:45pm, Cathay Pacific from either San Francisco or Los Angeles arrives at 6:55pm, and Air Canada from Vancouver arrives at 7pm.

Carry your bags. 1 Hour should be enough to get off the plane, go through immigration and get on the TurboJet ferry to Macau.

Hong Kong airport is very efficient and as long as you're not arriving on Saturday night on a holiday or something, it should be ok. Don't waste time though, once you leave the plan ask for directions ASAP, everyone understands English.

Thank you very much. I thought the ferry is before the immigration, but anyway I will carry my bag and run across the hall. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
