Just returned Sunday from ICN through PVG to EWR

Only a landing card is required (no entry visa for InTransit)

ALL bags must be claimed & rechecked

2 tremendous terminals about a half mile apart with

a shuttle bus to do the elevated loop (easily done)

Very comfortable "Shanghai Lounge" in T2 with many

nice amenities & pleasant food & drink offerings

Wide array of seating arrangements & free wireless

but some site blocking (mostly on sending)

Highly recommend utilizing PVG for transfers with

sufficient connection time (not for short turns)

Great selection of shopping & food service options

2 mirror image hotels between the terminals

Happy to answer any PMs
