(Macao, March 1, 2024) – Sands® Resorts Macao is the first integrated resort to introduce Hong Kong International Airport check-in and direct bus transfer service effective March 1, 2024. The new services are part of Sands Resorts Macao's ongoing commitment to providing unparalleled convenience and comfort to its guests, and are set to revolutionise the travel experience for individual travellers and groups alike.

Guests can now enjoy the convenience of checking in for their flights directly from the comfort of the integrated resort, saving valuable time while enjoying a seamless journey to Hong Kong International Airport, for an enhanced travel experience overall. Furthermore, it is expected that this ground-breaking initiative will play a role in supporting the MGTO's visitor number goals for 2024 and beyond.

Kris Kaminsky, Senior Vice President of Hotel Operations, Sands China Ltd. said, "We are thrilled to introduce airport check-in and direct bus transfers, which provide unrivalled convenience and comfort to our valued guests. It also further solidifies Sands Resorts Macao's position as a leader in hospitality that delivers world-class guest experiences, while showing support of the Macao SAR Government's strategy of positioning and developing Macao as a World Centre of Tourism and Leisure." 

Emphasising the critical role of this initiative in addressing accessibility limitations within the MICE segment, Stephanie Tanpure, Vice President of Sales, Sands China Ltd. said, "The introduction of airport check-in and direct bus transfers is a critical component of our response to calls to enhance the accessibility of Macao as a destination. We are committed to ensuring that every guest's journey with us is as easy and convenient as possible."

It is a move that has already been recognised by industry experts as being significant in positioning Macao as a premier international MICE destination. Mark Seymour, a prominent meeting planner from the US said, "The introduction of airport check-in and direct bus transfers by Sands Resorts Macao marks another significant step towards making Macao a truly international MICE destination. This initiative will undoubtedly enhance the appeal of Macao as a preferred destination for corporate events and conferences, offering exceptional convenience and accessibility for attendees."

This new bus service is part of Phase 1 of expanded transportation offerings and will depart from The Venetian Macao directly to the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) port, providing a convenient link to Hong Kong International Airport. Sands Resorts Macao remains dedicated to continually enhancing guest services and looks forward to welcoming travellers from around the world to experience the exceptional luxury and convenience of its resorts.
