What is the best way to go to Pudong Airport from downtown Shanghai at night?
I am staying in downtown Shanghai and have a flight from Shanghai to Paris at 12:30am (half an hour after midnight). According to WikiVoyage, the subway line 2 and Maglev train stop running after 9pm and 9:30pm respectively. Airport shuttle bus (line 2 from Jing'an temple) seems to stop after 9:30pm too. And taxi is simply too expensive.
Are there any local tricks or methods to travel to the international airport which is supposed to open 24 hours?
Best Answer
I was living in Shanghai until a few weeks ago. Taxi really is your best option at ¥170-¥220.
If you really wanted to save the cash, then there are dedicated airport shuttle buses that run until about 23:00. In would take the one from Jing'an Temple as a good location, but there are others as well. That would cost ¥22 and take 50 minutes.
