  • Getting from the airport to the city – every option, compared

    Posted by iTravelChina on 2026年9月30日 at pm7:07

    Taxi, DiDi, metro, airport express, hotel transfer. Each makes sense in a different situation.

    My general rule:

    • Land during the day, hotel near a metro stop, take the metro
    • Land at 2am, book a hotel transfer
    • Everything else, use DiDi — usually the best answer

    One warning nobody gives you: at big airports the DiDi pickup point is often nowhere near the taxi rank. At Shanghai Pudong it is on a completely different level. Screenshot your driver’s plate number before you go looking.

    What is your default? And has anyone been properly lost at an airport here?
