Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior visual experience, featuring the scenic coastline of the Gulf of Riga and the dramatic transition from the Baltic mainland to the Estonian archipelago during the descent into Tallinn.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏰

Vilnius Old Town

A UNESCO World Heritage site with its red-roofed baroque architecture, visible shortly after a northbound departure.

🌊

Gulf of Riga Coastline

Sweeping views of the Latvian coast and the sandy beaches near Jurmala as the flight heads north.

🏖️

Pärnu Bay

The shallow, turquoise waters of Estonia's summer capital, offering a distinct contrast to the deep green forests.

🏝️

Estonian Archipelago

Distant views of Saaremaa and Muhu islands dotting the Baltic Sea horizon during the initial descent phase.

🚢

Tallinn Passenger Port

On a western approach, enjoy views of massive cruise ships and ferries docked in the capital's harbor.

For the most dramatic experience, book an evening flight to witness the sun setting over the Baltic Sea. Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the coastline isn't obstructed. In winter, the frozen coastal inlets provide a unique geometric pattern of white ice and blue water.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🗼

Vilnius TV Tower

Lithuania's tallest structure standing prominently against the city's suburban landscape during takeoff.

🌲

Gauja National Park

The winding river valley and dense ancient forests of Latvia, known as the 'Livonian Switzerland'.

🚜

Baltic Farmlands

A rhythmic patchwork of agricultural fields and small villages across the Latvian and Estonian interior.

💧

Lake Ülemiste

Tallinn's primary water source, which the plane skims directly over just seconds before touching down at TLL.

🏢

Tallinn Business District

The modern glass skyscrapers of the Maakri district standing in contrast to the nearby medieval spires.

Choose the right side for morning flights to enjoy the soft sunrise light over the interior forests. This side is particularly spectacular during the autumn 'Golden Season' when the birch forests of Latvia and Estonia turn vibrant yellow. Keep your camera ready during the final 60 seconds of the flight for a close-up of Lake Ülemiste.
