The ex-SHA 40 minute cutoff (+ priority security for J) is also something that PVG can’t offer… I remember I left my hotel in Jingan at 12:10pm for a 1:20pm departure once and still made it fine. My colleagues are already raving about the new 3rd frequency (if only complaining about it not being daily..).
they often just zero out J by default for SHA flights (often the friday 530pm/7pm flight out of PVG as well) regardless of capacity, making it a de facto ‘DM exclusive’ flight as the only way to get on would be using the seat guarantee benefit.

yes. And more than that number in the back
