Shanghai is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Pudong International (PVG) is the city’s primary international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers as well as significant cargo traffic; flights here can be comparatively higher priced but offer wide connectivity. It lies about 30–40 km east of downtown; airport express trains and maglev services take roughly 30–50 minutes, while taxis or rideshares usually run 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, with fares varying by route and time of day. Pudong is convenient for international transfers and modern amenities but can mean longer travel times to central hotels. Hongqiao International (SHA) functions more as Shanghai’s domestic and regional gateway, often favored by budget and domestic carriers and by business travelers seeking proximity to the city. Located roughly 13 km west of the city center, Hongqiao is linked by metro and suburban rail with journeys of about 20–30 minutes; taxis typically take 30–45 minutes and are usually cheaper than Pudong trips. Hongqiao’s main advantages are shorter transfer times and good public-transport integration, though it handles fewer long-haul international flights and can be busier during peak domestic periods.
King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) is Jeddah’s main international gateway and typically serves as the country’s primary hub for both full-service carriers and regional airlines, with frequent Saudi Arabian flag-carrier and Gulf operator connections. The airport sits roughly 19–35 km north of downtown Jeddah depending on the terminal, and transfers can take about 20–45 minutes by taxi or ride-hail; public buses and hotel shuttles are sometimes available with lower fares. Fares to the city are generally perceived as mid-range for the region. Pros: modern facilities, extensive international links and dedicated Hajj/Umrah services; cons: peak-time congestion and variable transfer times during busy pilgrimage seasons.
