Stuck in the airport? How to kill time in Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan
For those stranded or delayed, there’s excellent entertainment on offer at HKIA, Changi or New Chitose Airport
Whether it’s a typhoon, a late-night flight or simply a random delay, it sucks to be stuck in an airport. Here’s our guide to fun things you can do to kill time at three of Asia’s largest international airports.
Hong Kong International Airport
Immersive entertainment
Before watching an in-flight film on a tiny screen, movie junkies can catch 3D movies at the UA IMAX Theatre @Airport,which features the largest IMAX screen in Hong Kong.
Tee time
After the disappointing closure of the nine-hole golf course, the airport has replaced it with a state-of-the-art virtual golf simulator in the Game Zone of the Departures Hall. Both 9-hole and 18-hole simulation golf games are available.
Food paradise
Named “The World’s Best Airport for Dining” at the 2017 World Airport Awards, HKIA has a long-established reputation for its range of F&B choices. The airport is home to more than 90 catering outlets, some of which are open 24/7. The impressive selection of restaurants offers cuisines from around the world, ranging from Asian delicacies to Western dishes, and from Michelin-starred gourmet dining to exotic street food.
