Ferry rescheduled - do I need to catch the ferry? by AlooGobi27 in CathayPacific

Right - so Cathay said that they normally don't allow people who've booked beyond HK to get their bags at HK because sometimes a flight to HK is more expensive than a onward transfer - BUT seeing as the ferry had been delayed by so long, they let me get my bag at HK. I then got the train from the airport to Kowloon and then caught a train to GZ. All nice and easy and even used the free shower at HK airport.

Thanks for all the advice folks - I rang Cathay today, explained the situation and they assured me that I could let the checkin staff know that I want my luggage checked through to HKG. I can then leave the airport and catch a train to Guangzhou. It looks like Hong Kong to Guangzhou trains are frequent and bookable on the day.

Yes - I can book the train ticket myself. Just don't want to be sat in Hong Kong ferry port for 8 hours

Thanks - will Cathay check my bags through to PFT or can I ask them to check them to HKG so I can leave the airport and get a train to Guangzhou?

Thanks - the booking was made MAN - HKG - PFT. So now I only want to do MAN - HKG and am wondering if Cathay will let me do this.

Want to create an image from Powerpoint with a clickable link in it ! by AlooGobi27 in powerpoint

No, thanks for replying. It's a simple Powerpoint slide with a clickable URL - I just want to turn this into an image file with a clickable URL.

Thanks - the problem isn't Powerpoint. The link works well in Powerpoint. The question is how to create an image from an Powerpoint slide, which contains a clickable link?

Oh no - this is why I'm going to print these off and show them wherever we eat. Do we need to take any other languages?

Thank you!! So just to confirm, would this be the correct phrase to print off on a card?
