RYGTLL

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most iconic landmarks, including a potential view of the Stockholm city center, its vast archipelago, and a prime angle for the Tallinn Old Town skyline during the final approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Oslofjord

Aerial views of the deep blue waters and rugged coastline of the Oslofjord shortly after takeoff from Rygge.

🏙️

Stockholm City

Depending on the specific airway, a clear view of the Swedish capital's interconnected islands and historic center.

🏝️

Stockholm Archipelago

A breathtaking mosaic of over 30,000 islands and islets stretching out into the Baltic Sea.

⛴️

Gulf of Finland

The maritime gateway to the Baltics, often dotted with large ferries traveling between Stockholm, Helsinki, and Tallinn.

🏰

Tallinn Old Town

On a standard approach to Runway 08, you get a direct view of the medieval spires and the Toompea Hill.

Choose a seat well ahead of the wing to maximize the view of the Stockholm archipelago. If the flight is in the morning, the northern light provides excellent clarity for photography of the Swedish coast. On the final descent into Tallinn, look out for the Port of Tallinn and the historic city walls.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌲

Southern Swedish Lakes

Sweeping views of the dense forests and the massive Lake Vänern or Vättern depending on the flight path.

🌊

Baltic Sea Horizon

Expansive views of the open sea, which are particularly beautiful during 'Golden Hour' flights.

🏝️

Estonian West Coast

Distant views of the large islands of Hiiumaa and Saaremaa as you cross into Estonian airspace.

💧

Lake Ülemiste

The massive drinking water reservoir located directly adjacent to the Tallinn Airport runway.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Baltic Sea. As the plane descends into TLL, you will pass directly over the shoreline and Lake Ülemiste. Keep an eye out for the distinct coastal formations of the Estonian mainland.
