I've seen some truly horrific cab lines at Hongqiao (the domestic airport); haven't been there in about six months so maybe it's getting better but it definitely has a bad reputation.

PVG, on the other hand, I've never had a problem with. From PVG you could also take the maglev train to the edge of the city and take a cab too (if you're not pressed for time, its actually a fun trip, and faster).
