Airport Express/Octopus Card
 

I was planning on purchasing the Airport Express Tourist Card which provides 3 days of travel on the MTR. Can we add money on that card so that we don't have to wait in line to buy tickets for the Star Ferry and the tram going up Victoria Peak? If so, how do we do that? Thanks.

Yes, you can put spending money on that card, which is a special type of Octopus. You can add cash to it at the Airport Express service counter, or any MTR station or at convenient stores.

Having said that, it doesn't really help with the line at the Peak Tram, as it's all crowded and confusing there and having an Octopus you still need to line up somehow. You might want to consider riding the bus or minibus or taxi up there, and then take the Peak Tram down instead (which generally has a shorter line except in late evening).

There's no line for the Star Ferry.

Very helpful...thanks
