Passenger statistics and history
In 2025, Hong Kong International handled 61.0 million passengers. It opened in 1998 on reclaimed land as the replacement for the legendary Kai Tak, and it has been the world's busiest cargo airport since 2010. Traffic figures move from year to year, so read that number as an indication of scale rather than a live count.
Getting to Hong Kong International Airport
The airport is roughly 27 km (17 mi) from the centre of Hong Kong, measured in a straight line. The Airport Express runs to Central via the Tsing Ma Bridge. Two evergreen tips regardless of how you travel: confirm your terminal before leaving, and if you are picking someone up, track the inbound flight on this site first: you want to arrive when the aircraft actually lands, not when it was scheduled to.
