Just came back from HK, the Octopus card can only use for Airport Express train and MTR (Subway trains) only. Found out from the customer service. 1 way airport express to HK station (last stop), will costs HK$100 if u pay a single fare. If u are taking the tram to THE PEAK for example, u have to pay cash or top up the Octopus card. If u are taking the Citybus to OCEAN Park, the Octopus pass again cannot be use, u have to top up additional cash. There is a refundable deposit of HK$50 for the Octopus card at the end of yr trip, suppose u forget to get the refund at the airport, u lose HK$50. So to summarise, its better to pay the fare from point to point, like the locals. Have a good trip!
Huh? the octopus card cannot be used for bus?!?! Last time when i was there in 2005, the card can be used in all buses, including the small bus!!
