Flights from Shanghai (PVG) to Taipei (TPE)

Flight route information

Cathay Pacific offers flights to Taipei Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) from Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG), with a layover in Hong Kong. Flights from PVG to TPE take around 5 hours 45 minutes, including the layover, and bring you to Terminal 1 in Taipei.

Upon your arrival in Taipei

Taxis are the most convenient option from the airport and take around an hour to reach downtown. Both terminals are equipped with taxi stands just outside the arrivals hall. Alternatively, you may consider taking the Airport MRT which will bring you to Taipei’s Main Station in around 30 minutes.

A brief introduction to Taipei

Chinese, Japanese, and Western cultures blend beautifully in Taiwan’s capital, which boasts world class museums, stunning architecture, bustling night markets, and delicious street food.

We recommend starting your journey with a visit to some of Taipei’s best museums, such as the National Palace Museum and the National Taiwan Museum. From there, you can take a short walk to the Taipei 101 skyscraper, which stands at a staggering 391 meters, and offers panoramic views of the whole city.

Owing to its international cultural heritage, Taiwan is renowned for its culinary scene. Explore the Shilin Night Market and you’ll come across several stalls and kiosks serving Taiwanese fried chicken, oyster omelettes, and pan fried stuffed buns. After your meal, be sure to order a Taiwanese style bubble tea - a sweet milky tea loaded with chewy tapioca pearls.

For something more off the beaten track, consider exploring the charming area of Tamsui. This district is a local favourite and features a picturesque boardwalk decorated with Dutch colonial monuments as well as authentic local restaurants.
