Toyama Airport (TOY) is a regional gateway serving Toyama Prefecture and nearby areas, typically handling domestic flights and a limited number of international charters. Carriers tend to be Japanese domestic airlines and low-cost regional operators, so fares can often be competitive compared with larger hubs. The airport lies about 30–40 minutes by car from central Toyama (roughly 25–30 km), with airport buses and taxis providing the main public links; bus journeys usually take 35–50 minutes and fares can be in the range of modest single-digit to low double-digit yen-equivalents (local currency). Pros include short lines and easy navigation; cons are fewer flight options and potentially less frequent public transport late at night.

Fly direct from Toyama to Shanghai for the fastest, most convenient way to reach China’s bustling economic hub—no layovers, less hassle, and more time to enjoy the city. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a nonstop trip saves hours and offers a more comfortable, predictable travel experience—perfect for business or a quick getaway.

Shanghai is served by two main airports with different roles. Pudong International (PVG) is the city’s primary international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers like China Eastern and international airlines; it’s often seen as pricier on long-haul routes. Located about 30–40 km east of downtown, PVG can take 40–60 minutes by taxi or 45–60 minutes by Maglev-plus-metro, with fares usually ranging from moderate to higher depending on mode. Pudong’s strengths are wide international connectivity and modern facilities, while longer transfer times and distance from the center can be downsides. Hongqiao International (SHA) typically acts as Shanghai’s domestic and regional airport, favored by budget and legacy Chinese carriers for short-haul flights and many high-frequency domestic routes. It sits much closer to central Shanghai — roughly 10–15 km west — and is often 20–30 minutes by taxi or about 20–30 minutes via metro; fares are generally lower than Pudong for ground transport. Hongqiao is convenient for quick city access and frequent domestic services, though it handles fewer long-haul flights and can be busier during peak commuter periods.

In different months, ticket prices from Toyama to Shanghai vary: minimum — $207 (January 2026), maximum — $240 (March 2026). Typically, the flight costs $221–$455.
