Boarding pass

What are the earliest and latest times for collecting my boarding pass?

Self Print and Mobile Boarding Passes are available from 48 hours up to 90 minutes before departure. You can collect your boarding pass at the Hong Kong International Airport from 1 day up to 50 minutes before departure.

For Hong Kong In-Town Check-In facilities (either at Kowloon or Hong Kong Station), you need to arrive at the counter not less than 90 minutes prior to departure.

Collect your boarding pass at least 50 minutes before departure if you choose to print your boarding pass with our Self Check-In kiosks located at various locations.

Note: Passengers must collect their boarding pass at least 10 minutes before counter closure. Please make sure to check the individual airport page on our website to learn more about each specific counter closure times.
