Which European city is cheaper to travel from Shanghai to?

The main factors leading to the choice of cities with cheaper flights from Shanghai to Europe are:

Distance: The distance between European cities and Shanghai directly affects flight distance and time-consuming, and the shorter the distance Cities generally have lower fares. For example, closer cities such as Moscow and Istanbul will be cheaper. Prices in distant cities such as London and Paris will be higher.

Airline schedules: Airlines will consider the passenger flow and market conditions of the routes when formulating flight schedules. The more cities you choose to go to from Shanghai, the more frequent flights will be, the lower the price and the greater the supply will be. Therefore cities with busy air routes will have lower prices.

Destination status: Certain cities such as London, Paris, Madrid and other major European capitals, as important political, economic and cultural centers, will bring about price increases. In comparison, prices in less important cities will be lower.

Seasonal factors: The departure month of the flight will bring about price changes. In summer, travel demand is high, and the price will rise accordingly; in winter, due to the decrease in demand, the price will be reduced accordingly. The price of travel will be lower if you choose a season with suitable weather.

Based on the analysis of these factors, Shanghai can consider traveling to cheaper European cities:

Mediterranean coastal cities such as Moscow and Istanbul: the distance is relatively close and the air route is relatively cheap.

Stockholm, Helsinki and other Nordic cities: Although distant but more frequent flight supply brings competition and lower prices.

Cities such as Florence and Venice in Italy: Although they are famous historical and cultural cities, their geographical locations are relatively remote and prices are lower outside the summer tourist season.

Central European cities such as Praha and Budapest: have relatively remote geographical locations, fewer resources, and lower relative prices.

Generally speaking, it will be more frugal and affordable to travel in winter outside of summer by avoiding major capital cities and choosing less important cities. However, when traveling specifically, you should also choose the final destination based on factors such as flight schedules and activity arrangements at the time to obtain a better travel experience.
