Shanghai Maglev Prices Cut by One Third

Reacting to poor ticket sales, the operators of Shanghai's maglev train line have cut ticket prices.  
 
Starting Thursday, the price of a one-way trip on the world's first commercial maglev line drops from 75 yuan to 50 yuan, about 6 US dollars.

Return trip tickets will cost only 80 yuan, but such tickets are mainly meant for sightseeing trips, as both parts of the ride must be taken the same day.

The cost of VIP tickets was slashed from 150 yuan to 100 yuan.

Moreover, operators installed an information desk and more signs directing passengers to the train at the Pudong International Airport.
