Pudong Int'l airport to Hongqiao train staion to ride bullet train to Hangzhou

Don't worry, Belle. You can surely catch your train. After landing and checking out, you may consider taking Maglev (8min)+Subway Line 2(almost 50min). In this way, you can save time and the cost is much lower, CNY56 per person.

Hi,
Car rental for 4 people is CNY385. If we take the train, total is CNY224.

The difference, the rental company will be waiting for us right after customs but extra CNY161. Would you know the wait time for Mglev trains?

Which do you think is a safer option? I really want to catch our train at 9.30 going to HZ. Btw, thank you for your quick reply.

Both ways can be fine, but personally the Maglev will save you both money and time. In addition, its high speed is worth a try! After landing, there are clear guiding signs to the train and the walking distance from the terminal building is within 10min. The train is scheduled every 15-20min. Usually, passengers can get on within 15min. I am sure you will catch your train in this way! P.S, As I know, the taxi fare for your route is CNY250 or around, not that high.

Thank you so much. I am more inclined to ride the train now. I think traffic will play a major role especially during peak hours.

I am thinking it's going to be an amazing race... in a place the language i don't speak!
