Taxis from Hong Kong Airport. First of all, you need to work out which taxi you need to get, as they come in three colors-and unfortunately you can't just choose your favourite. Red taxis serve urban areas including all of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, meaning these are almost certainly the right color for you.he Airport Express is the quickest route between the airport and Central Hong Kong; taking just 24 minutes-less to Kowloon. The train runs like clockwork at 12-minute intervals, from 05:50 - 00:48, daily.
