Time to transfer from PVG to SHA?

I was planning to go to XMN via Shanghai. Looking at schedules at
vcts360.com, it did appear that there were flights from Pudong to XMN.
However a more careful check seems to indicate that all nonstop flights
from Shanghai to Xiamen leave from the old airport. Not necessarily a big
deal, especially since I'll bring along my personal interpreter :-).

Looks like the distance between the two airports is 40 km, and the shuttle
charges RMB 30/head.

Question is, though, how long does the transfer take? Specifically, on a
Saturday afternoon early July, arriving shortly after 3 pm.

In shanghai, the flight to XMN all depart from SHA. And you're right,
there has the shuttle bus but it seems 20/head, not 30/head.
The transfer usually takes at leat about one hour and a half. And
actually, it is hard to say, on saturday afternoon the traffic
situation is more changable than usual.

Thanks.

I think I read somewhere a cab ride would be much faster, about 40 minutes?

Would the fastest be to take the maglev train and then a cab?
