The success in keeping the flow fluent and reliable while providing a high service quality has won the airport many prestigious accolades. The Chartered Institute of Logistics & Transport in Hong Kong 7/F., Yue Hing Building, 103 Hennessy Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong. T (852) 2866 6336 F (852) 2866 6118 E [email protected] www.cilt.org.hk As the world’s fifth busiest international passenger airport and the world’s most active air cargo operation, HKIA sees an average of 750 aircraft movements a day. Over 80 airlines (including 18 cargo carriers) operate at HKIA, connecting Hong Kong with more than 140 locations around the world. The Newsletter for The Chartered Institute of Logistics & Transport in Hong Kong Mr. KY Leung, FCILT Congratulations 24 With scheduled flights servicing about 40 Mainland destinations, HKIA is the airport of choice for China-bound international travellers. Concurrently, HKIA is also positioning itself to meet the ever-growing travel and cargo needs of the rapidlyexpanding PRD region. In light of globalization and regional integration, it is crucial for HKIA to further integrate its extensive international connection with the transportation network of PRD cities. At present, over 60% of HKIA’s 40-plus million passengers are Mainland-travellers. Out of this group, 70% are inter-modal transfer passengers who use HKIA to connect with cities in the PRD and other cities in China for business and/or leisure purposes. This passenger sector is critical to the future growth of HKIA and of Hong Kong. Much effort has been dedicated to the generation of pioneering travel products catered to improve the passenger travel experience through enhanced connectivity, reliability and hassle-free accessibility. As such, HKIA views its top priority is to extend itself beyond the border to the very origins and destinations of its passengers’ travel journeys. SkyPier is a ferry terminal located within the grounds of HKIA. It serves as a base for a designated ferry service connecting HKIA with the top five ferry ports in the PRD (Shekou, Fuyong/Shenzhen, Humen/Dongguan, Zhongshan and Macau). The implementation this project represents an innovative step forward that forges HKIA’s position as a hub airport servicing not only Hong Kong residents, but also the 48 million people residing in the PRD. HKIA believes that the value generated by SkyPier will revolutionize the behaviour of Mainland travellers in that they would consider HKIA to be ‘their’ airport; especially for international destinations. 2 CILTHK Newsletter issue 24 The fundamental business logic behind SkyPier is twofold. Firstly, high-speed ferry transportation sailing from HKIA (as opposed to downtown HK) can effectively shorten travel time between HKIA and PRD ports by up to half. Secondly, since transiting passengers do not “enter” the commerce of Hong Kong, this justifies their bypassing of HK Customs, Immigration & Quarantine (CIQ) formalities and their exemption from the $120 HK Airport Departure Tax. These factors have eliminated major processing and travelling barriers for sea-air passengers. Equally as important is the establishment of a significant financial incentive for the usage of this mode of transportation. Within SkyPier’s short two-year operational history; the number of airlines represented increased from 25 in 2003 to 57 today, daily passenger throughput increased from 800 at commencement to over 4000 today, check-in counters increased from 12 to 19. Overall, SkyPier has facilitated the travels of over 2.3 million PRD passengers since its inauguration in September 2003. It has experienced an annual growth rate of 56%. This strong traffic growth trend is expected to continue with a projected 1.7 million passengers in 2006. Way forward In an effort to continuously enhance the customer service levels for sea-air passengers, the concept of Upstream Check-in at PRD ports was designed to allow the checked-in passenger to bypass check-in formalities at SkyPier and to relief him from carrying his belongings through the various CIQ checkpoints along the way. This project was realized in November 2005 as Shekou of Shenzhen became the world’s first cross-boundary check-in facility. Passengers boarding ferries at Shekou can confidently check-in with their airline, receive their boarding passes and drop off their bags. The remainder of their journey is then hassle-free. In regards to infrastructure, the existing SkyPier is but a temporary facility pending the construction of the permanent SkyPier II. SkyPier II will be located adjacent to the newly opened AsiaWorld-Expo. The permanent pier, hotel, exhibition facility and a 9-hole golf course will make up SkyCity. Upon completion, SkyCity will provide much improved facilities and more convenient and hasslefree services for SkyPier passengers. Phase one of the SkyCity development is expected to be completed in 2007. issue 24 CILTHK Newsletter 3 education & training committee CILT Student Day 2006 In collaboration with the Lingnan Institute of Further Education, Lingnan University (LIFE), this year’s Student Day was successfully organized and held on 11 March 2006 at MBG06, Lingnan University.

Role of the CILTHK Library: CPD & Lifelong Learning Resources Centre Ho Shiu Fai, Chair of Education & Training Committee In today’s world of rapid changing technology and highly competitive business environment, it takes more than just hard work and experience to be successful in one’s profession. Continuing professional development must continue throughout our professional career and lifelong learning is essential. The CILTHK library plays an important role as a continuing professional development (CPD) and lifelong learning resources centre for our members. The CILTHK library has traditionally committed to a strong role in supplying books and texts used by members seeking to take our Professional Qualifying Examination (PQE). To promote continuing professional development and lifelong learning, the CILTHK library would have to play a role more than a book repository and increase its value to our members. It is essential for the library of a professional institute like ours to keep up with services for the kinds of technology our members employ, and to provide high quality learning opportunities for members to develop skills necessary to interpret, evaluate and apply information to the problems that may arise in their professions and in their daily work. Our focus on strengthening learning resources is reflected in the increasing volumes of publications made available in the library. The E&T Committee has the aim to gradually increase the stock of the library’s content, and bring members’ attention to resources likely to appeal to them, and expand collections of current, quality learning resources in print format, as well as those in other non-print and electronic formats, and develop new mechanisms of access and a delivery system in support of high-quality information services. The ultimate aim is that the library can blend with internet learning environment and become the popular place where members go. While we strive to enhance the library services for our members, the greatest challenge is our awareness of members’ needs and motivations. So please don’t hesitate to recommend books and publications, etc. to be included in the library and forward your ideas and assistance. It is your library and we are here to address your needs. Seminar On 11 January 2006, Ms. Lilian Seet, Assistant Vice President of Federal Insurance Company, presented a talk on “Transportation Specialist Legal Liability Insurance” at CILTHK office. Around 40 members attended the talk in the evening. At the last session of Q&A, attendees and speaker engaged in interactive communication, and the seminar ended at 8pm.
