Hi All
I'm hoping to catch a Cathay Pacific flight from:
London to HK
HK to Shanghai
I have my Chinese Z visa sorted, the only thing is, I want to stop over in HK for a couple of nights before I head on to Shanghai. Should I take this option, do I have to pay any additional airpot fees at HK if I leave the airport then come back in 2 days?
Travel agent assured me that the ticket price will remain the same as if I was traveling on the connecting flight to Shanghai. My worry is more about additional airport costs or possible entry fees. Can anyone shed any light to this?
Regards,
Noodles (the) |

As far as I know there are no charges when entering Hong Kong. People from most countries can enter without a visa for up to 90 days. If you are British I think you can actually stay for 6 months.
However, there are some countries that require a visa even to transit Hong Kong. My partner is Ghanaian and needs a visa every time he visits.
If you look on the immigration website you will find the countries listed and the visa requirements. |
