May is used to express possibility. Can means "able to". I would say:

A1. You may take either airport bus or  MTR to the HK Station then take the Airport Express.

A2. You can take either airport bus or  MTR to the HK Station then take the Airport Express.

Note: Use the the word "take" once in the sentence.
  

B1. He is forty-eight years old. (There is a hyphen.)
