Airport was the western terminus station on Airport Express of Hong Kong's MTR, before the opening of the AsiaWorld-Expo station on 20 December 2005. It serves the Hong Kong International Airport. The station is integrated with the passenger terminal of the airport, and for the convenience of the travellers, no exit or entry gates are installed. Therefore, travellers can walk straight into the terminal building through the exit for their check-in procedures (if they have not completed In-Town Check-in). Ticket baskets are provided on the departure level for the travellers to dispose of their used tickets in. A souvenir shop is also found there.
Platform 3 was n constructed opposite to platform 1 to allow for access to SkyPlaza and Terminal 2. The new platform started operations on 28 February 2007[1] when the additional check-in facilities opened at Terminal 2. Airport Express trains stopping at the station now opens its two doors simultaneously for both platforms - doors on the left open for Terminal 1, and doors on the right open for Terminal 2 and SkyPlaza.
