Tour Highlights

Meet-and-Greet in the Arrivals Hall

Your driver waits in the arrivals hall with a name board and carries your bags, the part of a shanghai airport pickup that matters most after a flight.

Pudong and Hongqiao Covered

Whether you land at Pudong or Hongqiao, the private airport transfer is booked to your terminal and your flight number.

Door to Hotel in One Private Car

One car takes you from the gate to your hotel, no taxi queue and no transfers, so your Shanghai arrival is settled in a single ride.

A Fixed-Price Airport Return Run

The same service works in reverse as an airport dropoff, at a clear fixed price agreed before your shanghai pudong airport transfer.

Start or end your trip with a private Shanghai airport transfer. Your driver meets you in the arrivals hall at Pudong International or Hongqiao, helps with luggage, and drives you straight to your hotel in an air-conditioned car. It is the simplest shanghai airport pickup after a long flight, and the same fixed-price service runs in reverse as an early-morning shanghai hongqiao airport transfer or a shanghai pudong airport transfer back to the terminal.
