Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Pudong International (PVG) is the city’s primary international hub, typically handling long-haul and full-service carriers as well as many international cargo flights; fares from PVG can be mid-to-high depending on season. It lies about 30–40 km east of the city center, reachable by the maglev plus metro (~45–75 minutes, fares around moderate levels) or by express taxi and airport buses (60–90 minutes, fares varying). Pudong’s strengths are extensive international connections and modern facilities, while longer transfer times and distance to central neighborhoods can be drawbacks. Hongqiao International (SHA) functions more as a domestic and regional airport, commonly used by budget and full-service Chinese carriers for short-haul routes; prices are often perceived as lower for domestic legs. Located roughly 13 km west of central Shanghai, Hongqiao is well linked via metro and suburban rail (~20–35 minutes, low fares) and has short taxi rides (20–45 minutes, modest fares). Its convenience for business travelers and proximity to the city and railway hub are advantages, though it offers fewer long-haul options than Pudong.
