Match the appointment to the venue
Cosmopack Asia, the supply-chain show, runs at AsiaWorld-Expo on 10–12 November. Cosmoprof Asia, for finished products, runs at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on 11–13 November. Check the exhibitor’s invitation for the venue and stand number before giving your hotel pickup time.
Allow for visitor registration before the first meeting
AsiaWorld-Expo opens from 10:00 to 18:00 on 10–12 November, with visitor registration from 09:30 to 17:30. At the Wan Chai venue on 11–13 November, the show runs from 09:30 to 18:30 and visitor registration from 09:00 to 18:00. These are Hong Kong times. Give your pickup contact the time you want to reach registration, rather than the time your first stand appointment begins.
Give a two-venue day two separate stops
If you have a packaging meeting followed by a beauty brand appointment on 11 or 12 November, list the end of the first meeting and the start of the second. Ask your pickup contact to check the transfer before fixing the second appointment. Colleagues going straight to Wan Chai need their own meeting instructions.
Use the free shuttle for an afternoon transfer
On 11 and 12 November, the organiser lists a free shuttle from the AsiaWorld-Expo East Lobby to Expo Drive Central at the Wan Chai venue. It is scheduled about every 15 minutes from noon to 19:00. Show your electronic or printed badge when boarding. If that covers your transfer, request a car only for the hotel pickup or the final ride back. Check the timetable for your direction on the day.
Check the reverse shuttle before booking the morning ride
On 11 November, the organiser lists departures from Expo Drive Central in Wan Chai to the AsiaWorld-Expo East Lobby about every 15 minutes from 09:00 to 15:00, then every 30 minutes until 16:00. On 12 November, the listed departures finish at 15:00. A return from AsiaWorld-Expo in the evening does not imply an evening service in the opposite direction. For a later transfer, discuss a separate ride and confirm the collection point. The organiser may change the timetable.
Arrange collection after the last meeting
Choose one person to confirm when the group has left the stand and collected its samples. Give the final venue and the number and size of any cases. Agree where a booked vehicle can collect the group and whether it should wait between appointments or return for a separate pickup.
