Quite an effort to get there with heavy luggage

We had to interchange trains to get to the Maglev. Lack of English signage and no lift for heavy luggage except escalator into the Maglev station. The upholstery over the seats were rather tacky and dirty. Apart from that we did made a 300/km.

High-Speed Maglev Train to Pudong Airport

Our guide was perfect and made the trip to the airport unexpectedly exciting.....He encouraged us to pose for pictures and we, of course, love those photos now that we are home. He was so helpful with our luggage that we look back and ask ourselves how we could have managed without him. Again, our last day in Shanghai was a great experience.

<p>Thoroughly recommend Mr Tom. He picked us from our hotel and saw us all the way through to check-out. Excellent English and most forthcoming on local sights and customs. The easiest way to catch the Maglav.</p>

I am unable to rate the Maglev Train...

<p>I am unable to rate the Maglev Train transfer as we chose to change to a car to take us directly to the Airport. We were worried that we had too much luggage for an easy transfer to the train. The driver was 15 minutes late picking us up but was very apologetic and got us to the Airport in plenty of time. He was very helpful with our luggage and very pleasant and talkative. A good experience!</p>

Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Shanghai.

How much does Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport cost?

+

Prices start at $47 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Shanghai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport take?

+

Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Shanghai is not rushed.

Is Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Shanghai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport?

+

Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Shanghai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Shanghai and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Departure Transfer by High-Speed Maglev Train: Hotel to Shanghai Pudong International Airport start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Shanghai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Shanghai?

+

On Outty we rank every Shanghai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Shanghai Full Day City Tour with Old and New Highlights, Suzhou Private Day Trip from Shanghai with Bullet Train Option, 4-Hour Flexible Private Shanghai City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Shanghai?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Shanghai?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
