Note: I would like  to share with  you  through  these few words, photographs and hyperlinked websites, a 3 Dimensional  experience as though you were  actually there with  us. Click on any photograph and it should enlarge to a different size ….. at least half screen or size full screen. It will be clearer in detail than the photo on the post. It will be as if you were  really there looking at the actual  scene. You are an arm chair traveller with us.

Hong Kong Airport

The Airport Authority Hong Kong (AA) is a statutory body wholly owned by the Hong Kong SAR Government. Established in 1995, the AA is responsible for the operation and development of Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA). The AA is governed by the Airport Authority Ordinance.

We had never been to Hong Kong Airport ….. it is huge being an International Airport. We stayed at the Regal Hotel attached to the Airport. See the notes and photographs below.

We were high up on a floor in our hotel  and we could

look way down and see the swimming pool on the ground floor.

From our room we could see planes coming in from around the world and Victoria Harbor.

The breakfast room  we could go down and have breakfast as part of our room deal. We could also go down and get a free coffee or tea in the morning  or afternoon  for a coffee break.  You could also go down and sit in one of the many lounge chairs and just read.
