In Hong Kong, I ate breakfast near my hotel, which was my only activity in Hong Kong… View of my Hotel room.It was a great sunny day.
I got on the A32 bus in front of the hotel to the airport, taking 30 minutes. I went to the Terminal 2, where hong kong express check-in counter was located.
As I already proceeded Web-check in and had a mobile boarding pass, I went through the security check without stopping by a counter. Boarding gate was 229, which is located in the satellite terminal. I had to get on the full packed train to the satellite terminal.
The satellite terminal was as clean as the main terminal.
I arrived at the gate just at the boarding time.However, already an agent was calling final. I got on a bus, and waited for about 15 minutes there.
3 ground crews were sleeping on the ground….Oh….This scenery reminded me of a local airport in Southeast Asia.
The seat was the very slim type, so seat pitch was not bad.
Then, Captain made an announcement.He said"Our flight will need more 40 minutes to departure for getting rid of the no-show passenger's baggage, " After 40 minutes, Engines eventually started.
We took off toward the clear sky.
30 minutes after take-off, Cabin crew started a meal-offering. I passed it because it was too expensive.They cost about $9(HKD65).
The cabin was clean and bright. Restroom condition was no bad.
It was uneventful flight….I watched movies on my table.
4 hour after take-off, We started a descent to Narita.
Beautiful scenery during a sunset. You can see many rice fields in this picture.
I arrived at Narita at 4:30 pm.Then, We taxied to the remote lamp. I got on the bus to the terminal 2, where we could access JR Line directly and many shops.
An Immigration was smooth because Japanese could use Automated immigration(Frequent visitor also can use it, but there are many restrictions now).
Thank you for reading my report.

Narita Airport has two observation decks, in T1 and T2 respectively. However, Terminal 2 deck is not worth to visit because there are many obstructions, and Runway is not visible. So I moved to the T1 observation deck, where I can watch Take-off and Landing.

Conclusion
Hong Kong Express(UO) would be the best option flying between Japan and Hong Kong with LCC. UO has a better legroom than Japanese LCC(Vanilla air, Jetstar Japan, Peach), and are operating brand-new A321. The Biggest advantage UO has is using Termial2 in Narita, so I could avoid crowded and boring Termial3(LCC terminal).
