Airline and stops

Total travel time typically ranges from 6–8 hours depending on the connection airport. Always check exact durations and terminal changes, as Ryanair sometimes uses secondary airports.
Best time to visit
Tallinn shines in summer (June–August) with long days and mild weather, but it's peak season and pricier. Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–October) offer good conditions with fewer crowds and lower fares. Winter (November–February) is cold and dark, though prices drop significantly and the city has charm during the festive season if you travel in December. Any time works; choose based on your budget and preferred climate.
What to do upon arrival
Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport (TLL) is 4 km from the city centre. You can reach it by bus, taxi or on foot if travelling light. The medieval Old Town is essential: city walls, cobbled streets and charming squares. Visit Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, stroll the harbour district and eat at local markets. Tallinn is compact; you'll see the highlights in 2–3 days. Accommodation and food prices are very reasonable compared to the rest of Europe.
