I myself would love to do that but there still aren't many international flights and it makes it nearly impossible for me to fly directly from overseas from where I'm used to coming from. I usually connect in Beijing and catch the 5:45pm or 8:45pm Air China to Nanjing. I used to fly into Shanghai and do the late feeder flight to Nanjing for international connections at 9:50pm but it is ALWAYS late.
There's been ongoing talk about the airport adding more international flights, even to North America. Maybe with the new terminal (Pretty nice, arrivals baggage pickup area notwithstanding) it would be great to see it happen.

1) the hour that it takes to get from PVG to either Shanghai Stn or Hongqiao Stn
2) the possibility that you might end up waiting for an hour+ to get a seat on a train

NKG and Nanjingnan form a very competitive combo for all of us that have business and other obligations in the provinces. Anhui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang at your doorstep and rather easy to get also to Shandong, Hubei etc. by HSR.
