I need some info concerning the airports in Shanghai, China!
What is the best way to travel from Pu Dong airport to Hongqiao airport? I have about 10 hours so time it's not a problem. I was advised to get a taxi. Any idea how much that would cost? Any advice about where to get the taxi from? Right out the airport or from a nearby street?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

There is a direct bus. Do not catch a taxi - it's a waste of cash. I think it's 30RMB for the bus, from memory.
However, since you have so much extra time what you could do is catch a different bus instead. I'd recommend catching one to the 'Jing An Si' (Jing An Temple) area, from which buses leave to Hongqiao (or if you decide on a taxi from here it would probably be nearly 100RMB cheaper).
At Jing An Si can get a feed, have a walk around or a sit in a park, check out the (newly reconstructed) temple, etc.
