British Airways flights to Shanghai land at Shanghai Pudong International Airport,
19 miles east of central Shanghai. After your flights arrive, catch the Magnetic
Levitation train, the world's fastest train, which will take you towards
central Shanghai at over 250mph. Stretch your legs after a Shanghai flight with a stroll
and dinner in Shanghai's lush People's Park, then raise a toast
in fashionable Xintiandi.
Travel to/from central Shanghai
Shanghai flights land directly east of Shanghai. Take the Maglev train to
Longyang Road Metro Station after your Shanghai flight, then catch a taxi into
central Shanghai. Or just take a taxi all the way. If you opt for a taxi
after your Shanghai flight, make sure it's a legitimate Shanghai taxi and
that the metre is switched on. Allow 90 minutes for the journey to Shanghai after
your flights as airport traffic can be heavy. Whiz past the futuristic high-rises of
Pudong district, across the river and past large People's
Square, where you'll see the impressive modern architecture of the
Shanghai Museum.
Best of Shanghai
After your Shanghai flights land, enjoy one of Asia's most vibrant and
exciting cities. Watch neon lights dance up and down glittering skyscrapers in
Shanghai's city centre, and discover chic cafes and cosy Chinese
restaurants in the French Concession. Wind down from flights to Shanghai with
a cocktail on The Bund whilst gazing across to financial district
Pudong, now a classic Shanghai view. Leave time before your return flights
for shopping in Shanghai's designer malls, or have clothes made to measure
at the fabric market. Escape the bustle of Shanghai with a massage at a high-end spa
or from one of Shanghai's many blind masseurs, the perfect way to relax
after a flight to Shanghai.
