Hongqiao Airport Terminal 2 (simplified Chinese: 虹桥2号航站楼; traditional Chinese: 虹橋2號航站樓; pinyin: Hóngqiáo Èrhào Hángzhànlóu) is an interchange station between Line 2 and Line 10 of the Shanghai Metro. The Line 2 portion opened on 16 March 2010, and the Line 10 part opened on 30 November 2010.The metro station is located near both Terminal 2 of Hongqiao International Airport and the high-speed Shanghai Hongqiao railway station, the latter which opened on 1 July 2010. This station is a "Virtual Interchange" station for passengers wishing to transfer between Line 10 Hongqiao Railway Station bound trains and Line 2 platform East Xujing bound trains. Passengers using Shanghai Public Transport Card (SPTC), T-Union Card or mobile phone QR-code can make the interchange within 30 minutes at no additional charge, while passengers using a single journey ticket must pay an additional fare because re-buying the ticket is required. The new platform that opened on 30 December 2017 allows a direct, physical cross-platform interchange between Line 2 Pudong International Airport bound trains and Line 10 Jilong Road bound trains; passengers transferring between these two trains do not have to get out of the station. It's also possible for passengers in other platform to go across the train of Line 2 bound for Pudong International Airport or Line 10 bound for Jilong Road to go to another platform without getting out of the station.
