Hong Kong Airlines passengers can use the check-in counters at the Kowloon MTR Station from June 27. According to the announcement, which came on the MTR app on Tuesday afternoon, the Hong Kong Airlines in-town check-in services will be available at the station from 6am-3pm every day.
The news comes after the Kowloon MTR reopened its check-in counters for Cathay Pacific travellers in early June, which also provides daily services from 6am-3pm. The station also has new smart check-in kiosks and self-service bag drop counters for passengers who have checked in online to directly print their boarding passes and baggage tags, and then drop off their luggage at the counters. They can then take the Airport Express directly to the Hong Kong International Airport.
Cathay Pacific and Hong Kong Airlines ticket holders can go to the Hong Kong and Kowloon MTR stations and check in anytime between one full day and 90 minutes before their scheduled flight departures during the counter service hours. They must also have valid electronic travel documents, such as e-passports, Mainland Travel Permits for Hong Kong and Macau residents, or Exit-Entry Permits to travel to and from Hong Kong and Macau, depending on their destinations.
