Kai Tak Cruise Terminal
- What it is: a terminal on the former Kai Tak Airport runway at 33 Shing Fung Road, Kowloon. The first ship berthed on 12 June 2013. It has two berths for ships up to about 360 metres long.[1]
- Which terminal your ship uses: our fare data says “Hong Kong”, not the terminal. Confirm it on your disembarkation documents.
Getting from the terminal to the city
The Hong Kong Government announced these measures on 8 August 2023, starting 9 August 2023: a free bus, route 22R, between the terminal and Kai Tak MTR Station; three free shuttle routes (to Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier, West Kowloon and Kowloon MTR Station; to Admiralty MTR Station and the Peak Tram Lower Terminus; and to Yim Po Fong Street in Mong Kok); and a HK$50 liquefied-petroleum-gas coupon for each taxi that picks up cruise passengers during disembarkation.[2] The release gave no end dates, and it is more than three years old: ask your cruise line what is running on your date, and do not count on a particular free service.
Typhoon season
Tropical cyclones are possible from May to November, and July to September are the most likely months.[3] Autumn (November and December) is described as the best-weather period.[3]
