About:Shanghai Metro Line 2

Transport (bus or subway/metro) on a Sunday afternoon PVG Arpt to Hongqiao train station

Hello,
(I have taken Taxi before from Hongqiao train station for flight from Pudong Airport & with traffic it took a while.)
However, I am now needing to do reverse: Sunday 2pm Arrival at PVG.
I would like to try either:
A) Metro Only or
B) Maglev/Metro from Pudong Airport to Hongqiao train station
How much does each method cost (one way) :
A) Metro Only?
B) Maglev/Metro ?
(do ticket machines take VISA/AMEX Credit Debit or just CN¥ Cash/Coin?)
What/how do I route/what transfers, etc. from Pudong Airport to Hongqiao train station for:
A) Metro Only?
B) Maglev/Metro ?

PS: ≈Time for both would be appreciated information also
Thank You,

By metro only, it costs CNY80 and takes 90-95min. Take line 2 from PVG and change to another train at Guanglan Road. You don't need leave the metro station.

By Maglev + metro: it takes around an hour and the fare is CNY50 + CNY6 = CNY56. Take Maglev to Longyang Road in around 8min. Get out of the station and walk to metro line 2 Longyang Road Station to take line 2 to Hongqiao Rail Station directly.

The ticket machine only accept Chinese currency, so you cannot use the bank card.

Apart from the options above, do you mind taking a bus? PVG airport shuttle bus can also take you to the rail station, which is not the terminal station. It takes around an hour and the fare is CNY30 per person.
