Getting to the airport on Saturday

I%26#39;m staying at the Prudential Hotel on Nathan Rd and need to get to the airport on Saturday for a 1:30pm flight.





What are the recommendations for transport? Does an airport bus come in the vicinity of the hotel at a suitable time, or would it be better to go down to the Jordan Station and navigate my way to the airport express line?





As a last resort, I could always take a taxi, but figure it will be approximately HK$300, so the bus or train is a much cheaper option.





Any help will be great!





Thanks

FORGET the taxi!





Not sure exactly where your hotel is , but I%26#39;ve had EXCELLENT luck with Airbus A21 which runs right up and down Nathan Road.





Frequent service, getting to the airport is easy. Figure maybe 45 minutes to an hour from Star Ferry area.





It%26#39;s a big, red and yellow double decker - racks for luggage, and to me , is a STEAL for $33 HKD. ( That was the 2008 fare I believe.)





I%26#39;m sure other TA people have more complete information.

As stated, the A21 airport bus will leave from a stop on Nathan Rd opposite your hotel around every 10 minutes or so. Catch a bus around 11am to get there for midday for your flight.




Definitely bus. You should take A21, which goes to exactly where your hotel is:

Scroll down to where it says airport-%26gt;hunghom and bus stop #11 is where u want to take off.



It costs only HKD33 each and it saves u much hassle of transferring. Remember to buy bus coupon (just outside airport) or get an octopus card to take the bus - it doesn%26#39;t give any change!




sorry i misread ur post.. yes the opp of ur hotel as drumbrake says :)
