Vladivostok International Airport (VVO) functions as the main international and domestic gateway to Russia’s Far East, typically serving a mix of full-service carriers and regional airlines alongside occasional low-cost options. Located about 35–40 km northeast of Vladivostok city center, transfers are commonly by airport bus or shuttle (roughly 45–70 minutes, fares usually modest) and by taxi or rideshare (about 40–60 minutes, fares vary with demand). As the region’s primary hub, it can be pricier than smaller regional fields but often offers direct connections to Moscow, Seoul and East Asian destinations. Pros: modern terminal, international routes and ground-transport links; cons: distance from downtown and variable transfer times during peak traffic.

Fly nonstop from Vladivostok to Shanghai for the quickest, most convenient way to travel between these two bustling cities — fewer delays, no transfers, and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a direct service saves hours and offers a smoother, more comfortable journey worth the upgrade.

Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Shanghai Pudong (PVG) functions as the city’s primary international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers—think SkyTeam, Star Alliance members and many international airlines—while Shanghai Hongqiao (SHA) is closer to downtown and typically focuses on domestic and regional flights with a higher share of budget and business-commuter services. Pudong sits about 45–50 km east of the center, taking roughly 40–60 minutes by Maglev or express train and 45–90 minutes by car depending on traffic; rail fares usually start from modest fixed rates, and taxis cost more. Hongqiao is around 13 km west, often 20–30 minutes by metro or 25–50 minutes by taxi for shorter fares. Pros: Pudong offers extensive international connections and full-service amenities; Hongqiao is far more convenient for quick city access and transfers to high-speed rail. Cons: Pudong can feel farther and pricier to reach; Hongqiao has fewer long-haul options and can be busy during peak commuter hours.
