Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the sprawling Stockholm Archipelago upon departure and provides the best chance of spotting the Tallinn Old Town skyline during the final approach into Estonia.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
๐Ÿฐ

Stockholm City Skyline

Catch a glimpse of the Swedish capital's spires and the 'Venice of the North' layout during the initial climb.

๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ

The Archipelago Maze

Stunning aerial perspective of the 30,000 islands, islets, and rocks that make up the Stockholm archipelago.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Naissaar Island

A large, forested island in the Gulf of Tallinn that marks the final approach phase.

โ›ช

Tallinn Old Town

Visible during the descent, showing the UNESCO-listed medieval walls, spires, and Toompea Hill.

๐Ÿ’ง

Lake รœlemiste

The massive freshwater lake located directly adjacent to the Tallinn airport runway.

The right side is the 'sunny side' on this eastbound route; bring sunglasses. For the best views of Tallinn's medieval center, hope for a landing from the west (Runway 08), which places the city directly outside your window.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
๐ŸŒฒ

Uppland Landscapes

View the dense forests and small lakes of the Swedish mainland immediately after takeoff from Arlanda.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Northern Archipelago Rim

Observe the outer islands of the Stockholm archipelago and the transition into the open Baltic Sea.

๐Ÿšข

Baltic Ferries

Look for the large cruise ferries traveling the maritime corridors between Stockholm, Turku, and Helsinki.

๐ŸŒ…

Gulf of Finland Horizon

On clear days, see the distant northern horizon where the Baltic Sea meets the Finnish coastline.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Since this is an eastbound flight, the left side (north-facing) provides softer lighting and is ideal for photography without sun glare during midday flights.
