China Southern Airlines has a direct flight heading off from PKX at 8:00AM and touching down at Hongqiao Intl. Airport (SHA) at 10:10AM — a travel time of 2 hours and 10 minutes. Lock in the best seat available, bring a few things to keep you occupied and the time will rush by.
Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from PKX to Shanghai Hongqiao Airport last minute?
Booking your journey from PKX to Shanghai Hongqiao Airport last minute could save you a nice sum if you're lucky to find an epic deal. However, airfares don't typically get cheaper closer to the departure date. If you choose to wait, flights could also be booked up or the best seats gone (hello, middle seat!). If you'd prefer to play it safe, book well ahead of your departure date. It's worth noting that some of the best deals can be found up to 12 months in advance. If your favorite carrier hasn't released its fares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia constantly.
What airports do you fly into for Shanghai from Langfang?
Hongqiao Intl. Airport (SHA), Pudong Intl. Airport (PVG) and Shuofang Airport (WUX) are your choices when taking off from Langfang to Shanghai. Approximately 13 kilometers west of the heart of Shanghai, Hongqiao Intl. Airport (SHA) is the city's major hub. Consider factors such as flight departure and arrival times and the distance to your hotel before choosing your airport. The Bund and Jing'an Temple are two top attractions to check out when you arrive.
What are the most popular departure times for flights from PKX to Shanghai Hongqiao Airport?
For China Southern Airlines flights jetting out from PKX to Shanghai Hongqiao Intl. Airport, the peak period is between 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM. If you want to avoid delays, head off in the morning. This gives you a better chance to escape the heavy air traffic that builds up in the skyways in the afternoon and evening.
Can I change the date of my flight from PKX to Shanghai Hongqiao Airport?
Plans don't always work out, so Expedia is here to help make things as easy as possible. First, access your PKX to SHA itinerary through the Expedia Trips portal and check the fare conditions to see if change fees apply. If you booked your ticket in the last 24 hours, some carriers will allow you to cancel for free and organize new flights.
