Maglev is the world’s fastest commercial train and it connects Pudong International Airport to the city center of Shanghai.
The top operational commercial speed of this train is 431 km/h (268 mph) and it reach the city in 8 minutes, it’s crazy, and I love it! The train stop at Longyang Road in Pudong, you need to switch to a ride on the world’s longest metro system.
The train runs from 06:45 to 21:30, with services every 15 to 20 minutes. A one-way ticket costs ¥50 (US$7.27), or ¥40 ($5.81) for those passengers holding a receipt or proof of an airline ticket purchase. A round-trip return ticket costs ¥80 ($11.63) and VIP tickets cost double the standard fare.
