Q: Hong Kong Airport to Luohu Trains
Hello everyone.
So my flights are booked and my seats are reserved. I shall be flying out on the 7th April to Hong Kong and then getting a train to Luohu (well hopefully anyway). My question is rather simple really. Is there a direct train from the airport in Hong Kong to Luohu, or do I need to change trains? I know already that I will require Hong Kong Dollars to pay for my train ticket when I arrive.
Alternatively, are there any websites with English translation that I can look at now to arrange my transport before arrival?
Thanks all.

There is a bus shuttle from Airport to Luohu every 30 minutes or so. If I remember correct, ticket price is around $HK 30.
The airport express (train) will take you to Kowloon where you can transfer to metro to go to Luo Hu. It is pricier than the busses, but a lot easier and faster.
You can buy the train ticket using international credit cards, however the metro ticket is another thing. Consider getting an Octopus card, you can get one that will also work for busses and metro in Shenzhen if you plan to hang around there for a while. It's a couple of years since I bought my Octopus card, at that time they did not accept credit cards in the metro stations where I tried (think it was Tsim Shai Sui, which is probably where you would end up with the airport expres)
The ticketing personel at HKIA will probably be able to supply you with a metro map and advice on which place to change from the train to the metro.
