Transportation:
From the Hong Kong
International
Airport to HKUST:
1. By Taxi
Taxi is the easiest
means of transport
from the airport to
the University. Take
a RED taxi (don't
take Green or Blue-coloured
taxi, as they are
restricted to travel
in the New
Territories and
Lantau Island
respectively) at
the designated taxi
stand of the airport
directly to HKUST;
the cost is
approximately HK$300
(US$38.5), and the
travel time is about
45 minutes.
Please note that the
taxi driver will
punch in the
toll charges onto
the meter and show
you the exact total
amount you need to
pay. Tipping is not
customary,
you only need to
round up to the next
dollar. Taxis
typically do not
accept credit cards,
so please have HK
dollars in cash
available.
Taxi drivers in Hong
Kong may not
communicate well in
English. You
might need to
print this
Taxi Driver
Instructions
(written in
Chinese), and show
it to the taxi
driver after
boarding.
2. By Airport
Express, MTR, Public
Bus
There are other
means of
transportation from
the airport to the
University. They are
less expensive, but
less convenient and
