Cheap Flights from Shanghai to Puerto Princesa Starting at $110

Puerto Princesa International Airport (PPS) serves as the main gateway to Palawan and functions as a modest international hub while primarily handling domestic traffic. It typically hosts a mix of full-service carriers (Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, and PAL Express) alongside budget operators, so fares can range from economy-friendly to mid-tier depending on season and route. The airport lies about 4–6 km from downtown Puerto Princesa; taxis and tricycle rides usually take 10–20 minutes, with fares commonly modest for short trips, while hotel shuttles and private transfers offer slightly faster door-to-door service. Pros include compact terminals and quick transfer times; cons are limited late-night services and fewer international connections compared with major Philippine hubs.

Shanghai is served by two main airports with different roles. Pudong International (PVG) is the primary international hub handling long-haul and many international carriers, while Hongqiao (SHA) typically focuses on domestic and regional flights with a strong presence of full-service and low-cost Chinese airlines. PVG sits about 30–40 km east of downtown — expect travel times of roughly 45–75 minutes by maglev + metro, airport express or taxi; fares for public transit can range from modest metro fares to higher express train or taxi costs. Hongqiao is much closer, around 10–15 km west of the city center, reachable by metro or taxi in 20–45 minutes with lower transit fares. Pros: Pudong offers wider international connectivity and more premium services; Hongqiao is more convenient for quick domestic connections and shorter transfers. Cons: PVG can be farther from central areas and busier at peak times, while Hongqiao has fewer long-haul options and can be crowded for domestic peaks.
