    Airport transfer for 12 ppl

    I need to get 12 people from Happy Valley to the Airport.

    My normal (illegal but very reasonably priced) guy can only handle 5 of us.

    I've looked at some legal options and they seem stupidly priced at over $2000HKD +
    Public transport (Taxi + AirportExpress) is doable and reasonably priced, but with so many kids running around, a single vehicle would be much nicer.
    Looking for a friendly and reasonable minivan. Is it easy to hire a red-top to do this for us for a reasonable price?

    @wtbhotia you usually have contacts in this type of thing. Could you think of anyone to recommend?

    Mate try these guys, I have hired a 24 seater coach from Wan Chai to Sheung Shui for 700 and as per the price list stated in their website it s $800 from HK to Airport but they quote this for using the old cross harbour tunnel, you can always pay more to take the western tunnel.

    Yay. A bit more reasonable and not even illegal, thank you

    OP oes sound as if they want a hassle free point to point service.

    If that isn't the case and they just want to save cost and keep the kids together perhaps a couple of people could go with a Gogo van with all the luggage and the rest walk and catch the A11 from Causeway Bay . 10 min walk with no luggage isn't that stressful one would hope...

    Booked the Western Tunnel for $900 for the 24 seater.
    Not a bad deal for transport from Happy Valley to the Airport.

    I found a few more companies but they were all more expensive.
    租車公司,租車服務-飛龍巴士公司 seems to be the most reasonable one.

    Very cheap - HKD75 per person. Perhaps you can rustle up a few more people and average it down even further!

    Well, if you know of anyone in/around Happy Valley who needs to get to the airport this Thursday evening, tell them to come along...

    We will leave Happy Valley around 4:30ish to catch an 8pm flight. We are off for a 4 day hike on the great wall.

    The hike sounds fun. 3 hours in the airport doesn't!

    I expect it will be. The weather looks decent with no rain predicted and the temps cool. Perfect weather to be out in the hills.

    Traveling with so many kids, big buffer is absolutely necessary. I speak from many years of experience
