Hi
I am considering renting an apartment in Bel Air. I would need to commute to Central each morning and I was wondering if people who currently live in Bel Air and commute to central would be able to help with the following questions:
1) I know the shuttle bus runs to the Shun Tak centre each morning. I would need to get to Chater House/Landmark - what would be the best way to get there from the Shun Tak centre each morning? The walk would seem to be 15/20 mins at least, are there any better alternatives? For example, is it better to then go one stop on the MTR from Shueng Wan to Central, or to get a bus?
2) Assuming I don't use the shuttle bus, I am thinking of using bus 30X to exchange square each morning (as I would then only have a very short walk to Chater House/Landmark). Is it easy to get a place on bus 30X from outside Bel Air at around 9am or do you need to get there well in advance to ensure you get a place?
3) Finally, how long does the 30X bus ride take to reach central in the morning rush hour (around 9am)?
Apologies for posting questions on a topic which I know has been discussed in various forms in the past. However, I couldn't find anything specifically on the above queries, and am also conscious the answers can probably vary over time, I would therefore be really grateful if any current residents would be able to share their thoughts/experiences on the above.
Thanks
Jay
