We'll be doing a transit visa. I've taken a taxi before to the Hilton and IIRC it took about an hour from PVG. Can anyone guess how long it will take to clear immigration and then take a taxi to the W-A on Guang Dong?

I'm trying to figure out what time to make a dinner reservation. You think we can reasonably expect to make it to the hotel by 19:30? Thanks.
