Flights from Melbourne (MEL) to Shanghai (PVG)

Flight route information

Cathay Pacific offers daily flights to Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) from Melbourne Airport (MEL) with a layover at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG). Flights from MEL to PVG take around 14 hours 15 minutes, including the layover, and take you to Terminal 2 in Shanghai.

Upon your arrival in Shanghai

The most convenient way to get from Shanghai Pudong Airport to the Shanghai city centre is via taxi, which takes around 45 minutes. If you wish to take the train, the MRT is located in the basement level of Terminal 2 and can get you downtown in approximately an hour. Alternatively, local buses are available outside the airport terminal.

A brief introduction to Shanghai

China’s economic powerhouse, Shanghai is an international metropolis that fuses futuristic buildings with ancient Chinese culture accented by a mouth-watering food scene.

Start your journey with a trip to the Bund - Shanghai’s world famous waterfront area. Here, you can find historical buildings lining one side of the Huangpu River, and modern skyscrapers on the other, such as The Shanghai Tower and The Pearl Tower.

In the centrally-located Old City, you can enjoy abundant natural sights at Yu Garden. Built during the Ming Dynasty, this iconic park hosts the Exquisite Jade Rock, a 3.3-metre high boulder said to be a gift for the Huizong Emperor in the 1100s.

Another area worth visiting is the beautiful Zhujiajiao Ancient Town Scenic Area in the south-central part of the city. While you are there, you can enjoy some of Shanghai’s tastiest dishes such as Xiaolongbao steamed dumplings and smoked fish slices.
