Travel

Hong Kong is a major travel hub and is thus easy to reach, with direct flights into Hong Kong International Airport from around the world. The conference venue and hotels are located on Hong Kong Island, and all of them are easy to reach by public transport from the airport.

Hong Kong has an excellent public transport system, and the MTR (Mass Transit Railway) system is particularly helpful, linking the conference site with areas across Hong Kong Island and the peninsula. You may wish to purchase an Octopus Card, which provides convenient integrated payment across Hong Kong’s transport network. There are also numerous taxis, which run using a set rate system.
