There is now a ferry that can take you from Shenzhen Airport Pier to Sheung Wan in Hong Kong in just 45 minutes, reports Sina Guangdong.

Officially opened on July 19, the ferry will offer departures from Shenzhen Airport to the Hong Kong-Macau Ferry Terminal from 9:30 am to 5 pm, and departures from Hong Kong to Shenzhen from 8 am to 3:30 pm.

The ferry will only make two trips per day on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.

A free shuttle bus from the airport to the pier takes about 15 minutes. The ferry company says it will take just over an hour to go from Shenzhen Airport to downtown Hong Kong.
