Dejvu! ...this does not mean you can't help a friend! What do you think we are all doing here?
Lunchbar, try giving a call to the Hilton and ask them if Emirates are having their selection there (say you lost your invite and you don't remember which hotel it was and you don't fell to call Dubai...). I know in Australia they chose Hilton, might be the case in HK as well... DON'T BE SHY TO TURN UP WITHOUT AN INVITATION! In Sydney, we were 3 girls not invited (out of 30) and one of us made it!
Good luck!
