Jackie Chan fans from the world came to meet their idol in Hong Kong on special "Meet Jackie" travel packages.
The special packages are among a number of activities to which the Hong Kong-born superstar has agreed to lend his name in support of the Global Tourism Revival Campaign launched by the Hong Kong Tourism Board.
Jackie, who has been Hong Kong's official Tourism Ambassador since 1995, met fans from the US and Europe who had gathered after arriving on various different flights. He also climbed on board the two flights from Japan to greet his fans on the plane as soon as they arrived to give them a big surprise on arrival.
The fans will also attend the Hong Kong premiere of Jackie's new film 'The Medallion', visit his own film production studio in Hong Kong, and hold a gathering with members of his international fan club during their stay in Hong Kong.
