TLL → WAW
Which side of the plane to sit from Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport (Tallinn-ulemiste International) to Warsaw Chopin Airport (Warsaw)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring the expansive Baltic coastline, the distinctive Curonian Spit, and the dense Masurian Lake District of Northern Poland.
Gulf of Riga
Vast coastal views of the Latvian shoreline as the plane heads south over the Baltic Sea area.
Curonian Spit
The unique, narrow sand-dune spit separating the Curonian Lagoon from the Baltic Sea.
Klaipėda Port
The bustling maritime gateway of Lithuania, visible as the route tracks along the coast.
Masurian Lake District
The 'Land of a Thousand Lakes' in northern Poland, featuring a stunning mosaic of water and forest.
Warsaw City Center
The impressive skyline of Warsaw, including the Palace of Culture and Science, often visible during the final approach.
Choose the right side for the most iconic geographic features of the region. For the best photography of the Masurian Lake District, midday flights offer high sun angles that minimize reflections. Watch for the Curonian Spit about halfway through the flight.
Tallinn Skyline
Aerial views of the Estonian capital and the historic Old Town shortly after takeoff.
Lake Ülemiste
The large freshwater lake located immediately adjacent to the Tallinn airport runway.
Estonian & Latvian Hinterlands
Deep green expanses of the Baltic interior, marked by dense pine forests and wetlands.
Daugava River
View of Latvia's largest river winding through the landscape toward the capital, Riga.
Warsaw East Side
Views of the Vistula River and the Praga district during the descent into Warsaw Chopin.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. It provides the best perspective of Lake Ülemiste during the initial climb out of TLL and offers a view of the sprawling inland forests of the Baltic states.
