Business Class Flights to Shaghai

Shanghai is widely regarded as the commercial centre of China. It is home to just under 12 million people and is located along the central coastline of this great country. Its name literally translates as ‘on the sea’, which is apt because large parts of this area are little above sea level. Any business people who are able to take some time off on their visit to Shanghai are advised to explore the wonderful gardens and museums of the city.

Travelling Business Class To Shanghai From The UK

If you’re flying from a UK airport directly to Shanghai then you will end your journey in Pundong, just east of the main city. If you’re in a hurry to get to your chosen hotel then it is worthwhile taking the maglev levitation shuttle train, which travels at an astonishing 431kmph. If you do have to spend any time waiting around at the airport then you will find that there are enough facilities to keep you occupied for a few hours.
As you will discover if you type business class travel to Shanghai into Google, there are plenty of airlines which provide an excellent service. Among the best known flight providers are Emirates, Finnair, Air France and China Eastern. Before making your final booking, be sure to speak to a travel agent who will provide you with the lowdown on the best deals.

Getting Around When On Business in Shanghai

For people on a tight budget who want to travel a few miles across the city the subway is probably the best option. This method of transport is relatively quick and runs regularly. Alternatively you may choose to flag a taxi, in which case you can expect to pay somewhere in the region of 160 Yuan for a 45 minute journey. Some drivers will take advantage of foreigners by taking them on unnecessarily long trips around the city centre. To avoid this situation occurring it is necessary to sit in the front passenger seat with an open map.

Other Useful Information about Shanghai

For anybody who isn’t an avid fan of Formula One it is best not to come to Shanghai when the Chinese Grand Prix is taking place. If you do come at this time of year then you will discover that most hotels are fully booked.
When it comes to money you will be dealing with the Renmibi Yuan when in China. 1 Yuan is comprised of 100 fen. You will be required to exchange any remaining Yuan into British pounds before you leave Shanghai, because this cannot be done once you have travelled past the Chinese border. Anybody keen to make payments using credit cards will be happy to hear that they are accepted in most places around Shanghai.
