There are most likely no direct flights on the Jeddah — Shanghai route
King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) is Jeddah’s main international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers, notably Saudia, alongside a growing mix of regional and low-cost airlines. The modern terminal handles long-haul and Hajj-related traffic, so fares can vary seasonally and on peak pilgrimage dates. The airport sits around 20–30 km north of downtown Jeddah; road transfer by taxi or ride-hail typically takes 30–45 minutes depending on traffic, with fares generally ranging from modest to mid-level for metered trips. There is limited public bus service and private shuttle options. Pros: extensive international connections and modern facilities; cons: can be busy during religious seasons and transfer times may be longer in rush hour.
Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Shanghai Pudong International (PVG) is the city’s primary international hub, typically handling most long-haul and intercontinental flights and hosting full-service carriers as well as many global alliances. It lies about 30–40 km east of downtown, reachable by maglev plus metro in roughly 45–60 minutes or by taxi in 40–60 minutes depending on traffic; fares can range from moderate to higher for taxis and higher-priced express options. Pudong can be more comfortable for transfers and international services but often involves longer surface travel. Shanghai Hongqiao (SHA) functions mainly as a domestic and regional airport, usually favored by budget and full-service Chinese carriers operating short-haul routes. Located approximately 10–15 km west of the city center, it’s commonly reached by metro in 20–30 minutes or by taxi in 20–40 minutes; fares tend to be lower than Pudong for short trips. Hongqiao is typically more convenient for business travelers and quick domestic connections, though it has fewer long-haul options compared with Pudong.
