Things to know before getting on your Manchester to Shanghai flight

How to reach the centre of Shanghai from the airport?

When taking a flight from Manchester to Shanghai, departing from Manchester (MAN), you will be landing at Shanghai’s Pudong airport (PVG). It is located about 18 miles East of the city centre. A shuttle service is organised by the Compagnie Eight Airport Bus. Departures are regular, leaving every 15 or 30 minutes.

Other transport possibilities are available at the airport. Line 2 of Shanghai’s metro line links the airport and city centre. Several taxi companies are available for those who have just landed. For improved mobility once there, rental companies offer cars with or without chauffeurs. If you rent a car, you must have a local driving licence. The city centre can be accessed via the Fareast and Yinbin routes.

What administrative formalities need to be complied with before taking a flight from Manchester to Shanghai?

To enter and circulate freely in China, you must first get a valid visa. For all visa applications, we recommend that you refer directly to the Chinese authorities’ guidelines, to comply with their procedures. Please note that a tourist visa is valid for about thirty days.

There are many specificities and exceptions in Chinese local regulations. Hong Kong has a specific status. Should you be staying elsewhere than in a hotel, you should inform a police station within 24 hours after arriving. To ensure optimal tranquillity during your stay, make sure you find out all you need to know before purchasing your airline ticket from Manchester to Shanghai.

When does it rain in Shanghai? When is the best time to go?

Though Shanghai is not directly impacted by monsoon season, its proximity with South Korea nonetheless influences weather conditions. Rainfall is particularly heavy during the summer, from June to August. We therefore recommend travelling there between April and May, when the weather is more pleasant.
