TLL → FRA
Which side of the plane to sit from Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport (Tallinn-ulemiste International) to Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Baltic coastline, the Estonian archipelago, and a more scenic approach into Frankfurt over the Main river valley.
Baltic Sea Coast
Sparkling blue waters and the jagged, scenic coastline of the Baltic Sea during the first half of the trip.
Estonian Islands
Excellent bird's eye views of the large islands of Saaremaa and Hiiumaa shortly after takeoff.
Gdansk Bay
Views of the historic port city of Gdansk and the unique Hel Peninsula sandbar in Northern Poland.
Hanseatic Ports
Passing over or near the historic maritime hubs of Rostock and Wismar along the German coast.
Main River Valley
The winding path of the Main River leading directly into the busy aviation hub of Frankfurt.
This is the best side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Baltic Sea. Keep your camera ready roughly 10-15 minutes after takeoff for the best views of the Estonian islands. On the final approach into FRA, this side typically offers a clear view of the airport's massive terminal complex and cargo city.
Estonian Wilderness
Aerial views of the dense pine forests and expansive bogs of Southern Estonia immediately after departure.
Riga Vista
A distant view of the Daugava River and the spire-filled skyline of the Latvian capital.
Polish Hinterland
Vast agricultural mosaics and rural landscapes stretching across the heart of Central Europe.
Thuringian Forest
Rolling green hills and dense woodlands as the flight enters central Germany's mountainous regions.
Frankfurt Skyline
The impressive 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers are often visible on the final descent if landing from the east.
Sit here if flying in the morning to avoid direct sun glare. Look out for the distinct bend of the Daugava River about 20-25 minutes into the flight. During winter months, the snow-covered Polish plains create a stark and beautiful geometric landscape.
