Beginning on Tuesday (Dec. 12), travelers arriving in Hong Kong from abroad will be able to change to domestic flights from Zhuhai without going through immigration checks on the mainland.
The same deal in reverse will be in place for those flying domestically to Zhuhai and then abroad from HK, with passengers skipping the SAR's border clearances as they are taken straight to their boarding gates.
Shuttle buses will whisk transferring passengers from one airport to the other via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge.
Xinhua News Agency said the new "Fly from Hong Kong via Zhuhai" policy will more effectively link Zhuhai's 90 mainland air routes with HK's nearly 200 international destinations.
The agency also stated that the agreement will strengthen cooperation between airports in the Greater Bay Area and open up new economic prospects for Zhuhai.
