À propos Shanghai Pudong International Airport

L'aéroport international de Shanghai-Pudong est le principal aéroport international desservant Shanghai, la plus grande ville de Chine par sa population. Situé dans le district de Pudong, à environ 30 kilomètres au sud-est du centre de Shanghai, PVG a ouvert en 1999 pour compléter l'ancien aéroport de Hongqiao, qui dessert désormais principalement les vols intérieurs. L'aéroport accueille plus de 76 millions de passagers par an à travers deux terminaux, et un troisième terminal satellite a été achevé en 2019. PVG est un hub majeur pour China Eastern Airlines et Shanghai Airlines, toutes deux membres de SkyTeam, ainsi que pour Juneyao Airlines. Le Maglev de Shanghai, le train à sustentation magnétique commercial le plus rapide au monde, relie l'aéroport à la station Longyang Road en seulement 8 minutes à des vitesses atteignant 431 km/h, et les lignes de métro 2 et 16 assurent des connexions de transport en commun vers le centre-ville. L'aéroport exploite quatre pistes. L'importance de Shanghai en tant que centre financier, port le plus fréquenté du monde par le tonnage de conteneurs et vitrine de la modernisation de la Chine en fait l'un des aéroports les plus importants d'Asie. PVG est également l'un des plus grands aéroports de fret au monde, traitant d'importants volumes de commerce international.
