Where is Hong Kong Airport? HKG Hong Kong International Airport is the main airport in Hong Kong. It is colloquially known as Chek Lap Kok Airport (赤鱲角機場), because it was built on the island of Chek Lap Kok by land reclamation, and also to distinguish it from its predecessor, the closed Kai Tak Airport.
The airport opened for commercial operations in 1998, replacing Kai Tak, and is an important regional trans-shipment centre, passenger hub and gateway for destinations in Mainland China and the rest of Asia. Despite a relatively short history, Hong Kong International Airport has won seven Skytrax World Airport Awards in just ten years.
HKIA also operates one of the world's largest passenger terminal buildings and operates twenty-four hours a day. It is one of the world's busiest airports, especially in terms of international passengers, and also the second busiest airport in the world in terms of cargo movements. In 2008, HKIA handled 48.6 million passengers and 3.63 million tons of cargo. It is the primary hub for Cathay Pacific, Dragonair, Hong Kong Express Airways, Hong Kong Airlines, Air Hong Kong (cargo) and Asia Jet (private).
The international airport of Hong Kong has two terminals. There is a free automatic train ('people mover') between the east and west wings of Terminal 1 and of the new Terminal 2 to the piers.
