Although two platforms have been constructed, Platform 1 is the only one in use to serve Airport Express trains. When a train arrives from the airport, and the driver walks over to the other end of the train for it to turn around. For the convenience of passengers, a taxi stand and a hotel shuttle service is provided on the same level once the passenger has exited through the gates.

The Tung Chung Line and Airport Express are located considerably far away from each other. The Tung Chung Line concourse is located one level below the Airport Express platform. There, passengers have to ride an escalator down one more level to reach the Tung Chung Line trains.

In July 2007, MTR installed two "Self-service Point" machines (first time in Hong Kong) at the Tung Chung Line platform. These unmanned machines help resolve passengers' issues such as lost the ticket or unable to use the Octopus card
