Do-able?

Visa wouldnt be an issue and I would just have a carry-on rollerboard and no check-in bags.

Thanks!
Despite having read that transit was possible airside, when I transited shanghai in April it looked to me like everyone was funneled out. I was changing airlines, so it wasn't a super-clean transit, but I didn't see anyway that a traveler could stay airside.
