Question

Referring to this Airport Express Group of 4 promotion https://www.mtr.com.hk/en/customer/tickets/promotions_4persons.html If I have 3 adults and 3 children aged 12, 4, and 3, am I eligible to purchase tickets under this promotion?

Answer

The Airport Express “Group of 4” promotion is designed to offer a discounted fare for exactly four passengers traveling together as a group. Here’s what you need to know based on the information provided:

Eligibility:

The promotion requires four people to purchase tickets together as a group. The total group must consist of four paying passengers.
Children under the age of 3 travel for free and do not require a ticket. Children aged 3 to 11 generally qualify for child fares, depending on the rules of the promotion.
For your group of 3 adults and 3 children aged 12, 4, and 3:

The 3-year-old is likely free of charge and would not count as part of the four-person group.
The 4-year-old would likely require a child ticket and counts as part of the four-person group.
The 12-year-old is considered an adult for fare purposes.

Application to your group:

If you include the 3 adults and the 4-year-old child, you have four eligible passengers, which meets the promotion requirement.
The 12-year-old will need a separate adult ticket outside the promotion, and the 3-year-old travels free.

Summary:

You can use the “Group of 4” promotion for 3 adults + 1 child (the 4-year-old), paying the discounted group fare.
The remaining 12-year-old will need a regular adult ticket.
The 3-year-old can travel for free and does not affect the promotion eligibility.

In practice, it’s recommended to confirm with the MTR ticket office when purchasing, as child and adult definitions may vary slightly depending on age, and the staff can guide you on the exact ticketing for your group.
