The New Lantao Bus Route B4 is one of many local bus services linking the HZMB Hong Kong Port of Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge to various places throughout Hong Kong. Running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, the New Lantao Bus Route B4 connects the HZMB Hong Kong Port of Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge and Hong Kong International Airport.

There are quite a few shot lots still left empty.

There is a manned ticket counter for New Lantao Bus Route B6 for passengers heading towards Tung Chung to connect with the MTR. The manned counter allows passengers to pay for their bus fare with WeChat Pay or Alipay.
Heading out to the bus bay since I was paying by cash.

Even after a few minutes of waiting, the bus was still not departing. Hmm.
I headed to the upper deck to take a seat to be more comfortable.
These seats look exactly the same as the MAN A95 LTA 3-door trial bus, just that it’s green.

From here, I headed into Hong Kong International Airport Terminal 1 to catch my flight, under close scrutiny of security and police officers, as only legitimate travellers with a flight departing within 24 hours are allowed into the terminal buildings. Checks for passports and flight itineraries are made at select entrances of the terminal, with some entrances closed for use.
Overall, a quick and efficient journey on the New Lantao Bus Route B4 from HZMB Hong Kong Port to Hong Kong International Airport Terminal 1, though I wish that the journey was a bit longer to enjoy more of the new bus. Then again, my check-in time cut-off was nearing, so perhaps that’s not such a good wish after all.
