Would you book a connection through HKG on purpose over a tighter routing?
I am comparing two itineraries and one of them connects through Hong Kong International with a longer stop.
The appeal is excellent lounge quality plus good for premium itineraries. The hesitation is trying to do too much in the city.
Would you intentionally route through Hong Kong if the total trip time was a bit longer but the layover quality looked much better?

I would absolutely choose HKG on purpose if the airport quality meaningfully lowers the chance of a chaotic connection day.
The best itinerary is not always the shortest one. Sometimes the calmer hub is worth far more than the saved hour on paper.
That said, if trying to do too much in the city is tied to the season or the exact bank of flights you are using, I would model that before committing.
A longer routing only wins when the extra time actually buys comfort, flexibility, or a better recovery window.
