Shanghai Pudong International Airport is an airport located in the eastern part of Pudong district of Shanghai, China. It is a major international gateway into China and East Asia, handling 17.15 million passengers on international flights in 2006, surpassing Beijing Capital International Airport's 12.6 million international passengers. It is currently the sixth-busiest air freight hub and the 28th busiest in international passenger traffic.
The airport is the main hub for China Eastern Airlines and Shanghai Airlines. It is also a major international hub for Air China. United Parcel Service will open a hub at the airport in 2008. Meanwhile, Jet Airways is planning to setup a hub at Shanghai Pudong International for flights transpacifically. Shanghai Pudong International Airport operates around-the-clock depending upon its passenger or logistics, because of this, it is one of the only few airports along with Hong Kong and Guangzhou to operate round the clock. The Top international destinations from Shanghai are Frankfurt, Chicago, Paris and Sydney.

Very good use of the perspective to carry the eye right into the scene. I love the strong graphic effect of the ceiling decoration. Well done
