"[Protesting] by closing down public facilities like an airport, or a railway station, I don't necessarily support that. There could be bit of negative impact here. Because I think this is a pretty forceful, quite a big protest that's going on here, airport's been closed yesterday. It's reported on news, so a lot of people know about it. So I feel like there will be some impact, hopefully the city can get in order pretty quickly."

The illegal protest at the Hong Kong International Airport has seriously affected the city's air traffic, and Airport Authority Hong Kong (AAHK) has promised to make arrangements for those who failed to complete the boarding procedure.
Flight check-in services were suspended at 16:30 Tuesday at the Hong Kong International Airport due to disruptive illegal rally. One day earlier, the act of protesters at the airport caused the cancellation of over 200 flights in and out of Hong Kong.
A large number of passengers had to change their travel schedule due to the situation.
A passenger from the U.S. said that such illegal protests may bring negative influence on the city’s normal order.
