Hi Simon,

Greeting from Peggy, Top China Travel.

If you arrival PVG at night, there are 3 options but it is also depending on the exact arrival time.

Option 1: Meglev train - if you arrival at night before 21:40, you can choose meglev train.
Stations: Pudong Airport Station - Longyang Road Station
Interval: 15 mins.( 6:45-17:00 ); 20 mins.( 17:00-21:40)
Summary: Maglev Train experience is not a Shanghai attraction but it can be a Shanghai highlight in your Shanghai trip.

Option 2: taxi - if you arrival at late night, you need to choose taxi to get to your hotel in down town.
The taxi will wait for passengers on the exit door of the airport, and it is easy to find one.

Option 3: booking transfer service - if your group is more than 4 people, booking a transferring service will be more reasonable.
Top China Travel is glad to serve for you if you want to book the transferring service in Shanghai.

Peggy
