 To save time, it is advised to travel by Macau to Shanghai flight instead of Macau to Shanghai train, and vice versa. There are around 20 pairs of direct flights flying between the two cities, taking 3 hours or so. The dense schedule and short duration make it popular among many passengers. A full price economy class seat is over CNY1,900, but the ticket fare can low to CNY400 in low seasons.
