Shanghai (PVG) airport
As an international traveler, we recommend you arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before your flight to allow enough time to check your bags, clear security and get to the gate. American’s Shanghai flights fly out of Terminal 2 at PVG airport, while flights arriving in Beijing will soon be relocated to Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX).
