Flights from Amsterdam (AMS) to Shanghai (PVG)

Flight route information

Cathay Pacific offers flights to Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS), with a layover in Hong Kong. Flights from AMS to PVG take around 15 hours, including the layover, and bring you to Terminal 2 in Shanghai.

Upon your arrival in Shanghai

Taxis are the most convenient way to get to the city centre from the airport, taking approximately 45 minutes. Alternatively, you can use the train service to reach the heart of the city in around 35 minutes. The Shanghai Metro provides another option and will take you downtown in just under an hour.

A Brief introduction to Shanghai

The economic heart of China, Shanghai boasts awe-inspiring skyscrapers, ancient Chinese history, and a variety of mouth-watering delicacies.

The ideal way to start your trip is by visiting The Bund - Shanghai’s famous waterfront area. While here, you can marvel at the city’s breathtaking skyline, which includes iconic buildings such as the Shanghai and Jinmao Towers.

You can find many ancient temples located throughout Shanghai, with one of the most famous being the City God Temple which was built during the Ming Dynasty. Right around the corner, you will find Yu Garden, which is home to the Exquisite Jade Rock, a 3.3 metre tall boulder that is rumoured to have been a gift for the Huizong Emperor in the 1100s.

We also recommend visiting the French Concession, a quaint and charming area well known for its tree-lined avenues, live music, and independent boutiques. Be sure to indulge in the district's many culinary delights, which include traditional dumpling restaurants and European-themed cafes.
