HKD 5,241

That's how much Clover's INFANT ticket costs from HKG - JFK - HKG. Even her taxes/ fuel surcharge were higher than ours at HKD 2,551, which makes her ticket - 10% of an adult economy class ticket - HKD 2,690.

When the service rep told me the amount over the phone, I had to re-confirm I was hearing the right thing; that they were charging

Re: HK baby friendly?

Bathrooms in mall with have baby changing areas BUT don't expect too much, it's usually just be a pull down table. Or use a handicap toilet.

Nursing rooms - some malls have them. I personally dont use them, I feed on the go with a nursing covers. Try pacific coffee (comfy couches) or Starbucks, that way you can chat to hubby / friends while nursing.

To be honest HK is not stroller friendly compared to SG. you can get by with a pram though you will have to take longer routes. And some older buildings have NO ramps at all usually a couple of steps to get into them. I am basing this on HK Island (central, causeway bay, admiralty). We don't really hang out in TST or the Mongkok areas - too crowded with locals and tourists not somewhere I'd take my child personally. Though I like ocean terminal in TST as it's stroller friendly, good mix of restaurants and shops and has baby shops (will take a good few hours to cover the entire mall.

Oh if you have a baby carrier use it. So much easier to get around. Also IFC mall in centra offers stroller rental.
