Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Shanghai Pudong International (PVG) is the city’s primary international hub, typically handling long-haul and many full-service carriers; it sits about 30–45 km east of downtown and can take 40–60 minutes by express train or 45–75 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares for transit options usually ranging from moderate to higher. Shanghai Hongqiao (SHA) is closer to the center—around 10–15 km west—and typically caters to domestic and regional flights as well as some low-cost and business carriers; travel time to central districts is often 20–40 minutes by metro or 20–35 minutes by car. PVG can be more convenient for international connections and offers extensive airline choice, while SHA is usually faster for domestic trips and can feel more compact; travelers should weigh slightly higher transfer times and costs to PVG against the shorter, often cheaper commute to Hongqiao.
Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC) is Dhaka’s main international gateway and typically functions as the country’s primary hub, handling most long-haul and regional carriers alongside national carrier Biman Bangladesh and several Middle Eastern and South Asian airlines. Fares to and from DAC can be mid-range for the region but vary widely by season and carrier. The airport sits about 20–25 km from central Dhaka; road transfer by taxi or ride-hailing usually takes 45–90 minutes depending on traffic and can range from modest to moderate cost, while limited airport shuttle services and private transfers may be available at higher rates. Pros: full-service facilities and frequent international connections; cons: congested roads and sometimes lengthy check-in or immigration queues during peak periods.
