    T2 is more modern, cleaner and has better shops, but I prefer T1 with a shorter walk and smaller queues.

    Don't take any taxi the person come to you directly, they wear formal attire look pro but SERIOUSLY don't take, all are money suckers. Just go taxi station downstairs, and look for long queuing taxi.

    The terminal is nice, convenient and it has several nice lounges to wait before departing.

    Airport Free WiFi is too slow to do anything. it takes more than 30 minutes to move between terminal 1 and 2. When you're in rush, make sure which one is your terminal or you might miss flight.

    Today's ticket is reserved for any flight due to yesterday's cancellation on heavy rain in BJ. Have to try every flight as many as possible. Not reasonable totally!

    For coffee Wagas always has a shorter wait than SBucks. Pacific Coffee is past Starbucks doesn't seem to have a wait at all but I like their coffee least of the bunch.

    If you wanna head to PVG and you live near hongqiao, you may Wanna try taking the shuttle bus near hongqiao T2. The first bus leaves at 6 am and could get you to PVG before 7!

    Rather close to the city, you can use qr code to board. Quite modern, very efficient.

    Compared to other domestic terminals around China, Hongqiao T2 is really nice. But good luck with the air traffic control.

    Try to take the first flight of the day for your destination. Especially if it is domestic an many choices. The security inspection is a bottleneck and less people in the morning

    If you have to go to Pudong airport from Hongchao T2. Find the waitting room #2 and take limusine bus #1 to Pudong. it's very cheap and faster than subway.

    You'll need a phone number to receive access code to wifi. Ask around for someone's number if you don't have a working number, it's a one-time process.

    I used to go upstairs for get a taxi instead to get in the queue at arrivals floor. Turns out that there is a security guy who make sure that taxi don't take any client. So be fast and discret.

    The taxi rank outside arrivals is ridiculous. Queue moves fairly fast but goes forever. Pro tip: go upstairs to departures and grab a newly arrived cab from there, you'll get one faster.

    you can take a free shuttle bus between terminal 1 and 2. 6am to 11pm every 20mins.

    I bought some local creamy candies at the stand near gate 45, and they were not easy to bite, like stones. And they don't accept international cards to pay, same at food court. Disappointed!

    Why is the English announcements so difficult to understand ??? I know many Chinese locals who have perfect English ... Yet the airport chooses a speaker with bad pronunciation #tiredcrankytraveller

    Never take China Eastern (MU) from BJ - they always land at T1, then you have jam in a bus and drive to T2. The bus ride takes 20 to 30 minutes. 👎

    Very nice and convenient airport with clear directions. You can find some "ok" choices for food eg Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts, XiaoNingTang, McDonald's, KFC and Haagen Daz.

    If you're coming from Pudong or downtown Shanghai, make sure you don't get off the expressway at the Terminal 1 (original) Hongqiao airport exit. The Terminal 2 exit is further down the expressway.

    If the taxi queue is backed up all the way to the door you've got at least 20 minutes to wait.

    Even though they know the flight will delay, they dont announce it until asked. I missed the chance to change flight

    Guessing train is on average as fast as plane to Beijing. 5 hour train but less security checks and no check-in. Since planes are always late pretty much evens out.

    There is a Costa coffee right above the arrivals gate. Just take the escolar up, and follow the smell of coffee

    Flying in from BJ on MU is absolutely terrible. They drop you off at some dark corner just as far as Suzhou, adding some more travel time on top of the usual delay!!!
