Most Hong Kong flights land at the bustling Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) which is some 24 miles west of the main city itself.
HKIA is the fourth busiest international passenger hub in the world and it has the world's busiest international cargo facilities - as befits a city that has historically been a byword for worldwide trade.
From the airport, there are frequent and speedy shuttle trains to take the visitor into the centre in just 25 minutes.
Hong Kong flights arrive at the airport from all over Europe, Africa, Asia and America.
In fact, HKIA boasts that it is less than five flying hours from half the people in the world.
Last year alone, a staggering 46.
1 million passengers took flights and touched down at HKIA.
There are 750 Hong Kong flights taking off from the hub every day, operated by some 90 different airlines.
The airport has two terminals and two runways, following the official opening of Terminal 2 in the summer of 2007.
It employs some 60,000 people in the Hong Kong and the Pearl River Delta area.
Hong Kong flights are an exciting prospect for all but the most jaded business traveler, because the visitor knows that they will soon be experiencing one of the world's most vibrant cities.
After they have arrived at the centre of the city - either by train or the slower, but more scenic, bus service - travelers can take the famous Star Ferry and witness the stunning vista of the harbour, before taking a tour of the busy night markets of Kowloon and sampling a world-class meal.
The neon-lit streets of Central are wonderful to wander, but peace and quiet is also not far away - why not hire a sailboat to Lantau Island and unwind by relaxing on a deserted beach or walking in the hills? Hong Kong flights are cheaper and more plentiful now than ever before.
Thanks to the huge growth in the number of online booking sites and price comparison websites, people are able to look at all the different fares on offer and book their Hong Kong flights in a matter of minutes.
With its location, it is also an excellent travel bridge to the Chinese mainland, and people often take flights in order to transfer to one of the many internal flights serving the People's Republic.
