- H. RosnerAugust 29, 2014Who really cares that it "only" goes 300km/hr in the evenings? It still the fastest and most comfortable way to get to the airport!Upvoted Feb 14
- You can have a 10RMB discount if you have your boarding pass, ticket or Shanghai public transportation card.
- Luis W.November 16, 2016If running out of time, definitely can consider this. 8 mins from Longyang Road station to Pudong International Airport station, just 40 yuan with Shanghai transport card. Worth it!
- Victoria GonzalezMarch 2, 2015You can tap in using your Shanghai metro card. Totally worth the 50rmb to ride in comfort and saves you so much time instead of being sardined in the metro with your luggage.
- Samir LDecember 30, 2019Take the Maglev for 40 RMB to/from the airport with your Shanghai Metro card. Runs at 300 km/h most hours, except 430 km/h from 9-10:45 and 3-3:45 each day.
- Y SJuly 3, 2018This is the ONLY commercial maglev train in the world. It’s not any high speed train. The train doesn’t really contact the rail. It’s really cool and very affordable.
- LaLa LaiMarch 17, 2014Maglev train goes with a speed of 300km/h from the center of Shanghai city to Pudong international airport, transit time is 7 mins and the fee is 50 chinese yuan
- Franco Marinari AccianiAugust 6, 2018All is nice and organized properly. It's a pity that the speed sometimes is far from 421kmh announced and is only 300kmh same as a standard bullet train wherever in the world.
- Nick KFebruary 18, 2018The fastest way to the Longyan rd, but not the cheapest one. Taxi would cost around 80-100 rmb, one ticket here - 40 rmb with transposition card, 50 without. But 8 min in 330-410 km/h - worth to try.
- Harumi UOctober 30, 2014The train reaches 300km/hr and from the station, it takes only 7 minutes to the airport and it is cool. From the subway Longyang Rd station, it was a tad difficult to find the entrance to the station
- TingJanuary 21, 2014Quickest way to pudong. Even to puxi, just transfer to a cab will do. 40rmb one way with air ticket.
- KarolinaOctober 23, 2011431kph topspeed only on two timeframes during the day. One in the morning starting at 9am and between 3pm-4:45pm.
- Kate FurmanNovember 29, 2017If you have a same day flight, you get a discount off your maglev ticket price.
- Attila PortikSeptember 26, 2013If u buy return between 7 days it's just 80 rmb! Keep Calm and Enjoy The Fast Life! ;)
- Vee ChaimuangmaApril 25, 201650 RMB for 1 trip. 80 RMB for round trip valid within 7 days. Takes about 7 mins to destination.
- John MahonySeptember 12, 2011Take the metro from here to save a lot on taxi fare, but be ready to carry your bags up and down stairs.
- If you want to go 431km/h make sure to check train schedule, it operates at max speed only twice per day for 1 hour.
- Marula LabApril 4, 201450¥ (single trip) - 90¥ (round trip). Show your flight ticket and you will have a 20℅ discount over the price.
- leave either every 15 or 20 mins. 8 minutes sharp from the station to the airport.
- Board the train by the far end. It's quicker and less crowded
- Mariana Stuginski BarbosaDecember 24, 2014Shortcut to airport, but if you have time just use metro, you can save money. Nothing special on it..
- Can't add money to your shanghai transport card after 7pm...'cause that makes sense
- David SLAVIEROJuly 26, 2012Shanghai maglev at 430 km/h, city center to Airport took less than 7 minutes !
- Geeeeeez! Couldn't get a proper meter taxi without using app at 9pm Sunday!
- Martin MuellerMay 10, 2011Enjoy the ride. It's worth the 40 or 50 RMB. Topspeed of 430 km/h will be held for about One minute.
- First train leaves 6:45 am so if you have a really early flight better to take a taxi to the airport. But if this applies to you, I suppose it's already too late
- Kiang LeeJanuary 13, 2011Use the boarding pass to get discount price when purchase the meglev ticket.
- Gregory ParkAugust 14, 2013Train ran more than 400km before but it is 301km today. Slower than before.
