Hi,
Were the greeters at the airport on 6 August? My plane landed around 10:00 am and by the time I had cleared immigration and picked up my luggage it was probably around 10:30-11:00 am. I looked around but didn't see any Wikimania greeters. No worries, though, as I've been to Hong Kong before and knew where I was going. However, I was just wondering.
Cheers, Jack Lee (User:Smuconlaw)
Same happened to me... Looked around for any WM sign or something.... Nothing.. But you can not miss the airport express....

I missed the airport greeters (same time as you!) but found them at Kowloon station with no problem. They were very helpful. Well done Wikimania :-)

HKG airport is awesome in all respects, except for the fact that there is exit A and B, making it a tough to catch all arrivers.
Hopefully with more volunteers starting today to welcome more arrivals the exits will have more coverage.
Welcome to steamy HK!
They were definitely there today around 1500 when I passed through. They had several Wikimedia Foundation signs atop luggage carts at the baggage claim exit. I didn't stop to chat (had other business to attend to) but they were there and were smiling.
