Travel from Macau to HKIA Hotel

I have a flight leaving from HKIA at 9am so even getting the first ferry of the day wouldn't get me there reliably on time.
So what I plan to do is stay in the hotel just by HKIA.  Does anyone know if it is possible to get the airport ferry from Macau then pass through immigration at HKIA - I understand the hotel is outside immigration only.

Alternatively, would I have to get the ferry back to HK then catch a train back to the airport?  Seems a bit of a waste of time if I have to do that.

Help appreciated.

I've never done this before and would also be interested in the answer.

Far as I know, Skypier is not a control point and would not have the capability to route you into immigration channels.

Perhaps on the APM to the main terminal you can reroute on the second level instead of the third?  I would think the best person to ask is probably Turbojet HK.

If you take the airport ferry from Macau to HKIA you better be prepared to take a flight. You do not have the option of not going through immigration once you arrive at HKIA Skypier. There is no access from the HKIA Skypier to the outside world.

Since you want to be in Macau before your flight, it sounds like you'd need to take one of the very early morning ferries (e.g. 4am) from Macau to HK (Central) and then take a train/cab/bus to the airport. I believe there is also a 6am ferry from Macau to HK (Central), but that might not give you enough time for a 9am flight.

I think h0merjfong has it right. Enjoy your last night in Macau. Snooze for a while in a sauna or your hotel, then take a very early ferry from Macau to Central, then take the train to HKIA from there.

That's rather annoying.  Seems like the best option is to get the ferry back to HK then train to HKIA then spend a boring night in the hotel reminiscing about Macau.  I'll be in Macau for almost a week so might be glad of the peace :-).
