Tuesday–Wednesday, 9:30–11:30 AM HKT (UTC+8) is the sweet spot. Hong Kong runs on Hong Kong Time year-round — fixed at UTC+8 with no daylight saving.

Q3.How do I call a mobile number in Hong Kong?
Hong Kong numbers are 8 digits with no leading zero. Mobiles typically start with 5x, 6x, or 9x. Dial +852 then the full 8-digit number. A typical Hong Kong mobile: +852 9123 4567.
Q4.How do I dial Hong Kong from the United States?
From the US or Canada dial 011 852, then the local Hong Kong subscriber number. On any US mobile you can also press and hold 0 to enter + and dial +852 directly.
