Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Ivalo to Tallinn-ulemiste International. While takeoff offers good boreal forest and lake views on the right, the landing approach provides superior visual interest with the Gulf of Finland, Tallinn Bay, and the city's historic waterfront and old town clearly visible on the left side during descent. The landing view is more geographically distinctive and memorable.

During takeoff from Ivalo (IVL), sit on the Right side for the best views. Ivalo typically departs to the south or southeast. Right-side seats offer views of the extensive lake systems and boreal forest that dominate the landscape immediately south of the airport, with the terrain gradually opening up as you climb. Notable sights include: Lake Inari (massive water body to the east), Ivalo River valley, boreal forest canopy, scattered smaller lakes reflecting sunlight.

When landing at Tallinn (TLL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Approaching Tallinn from the north, aircraft typically descend on a southwesterly or southerly heading. Left-side seats provide views of the Gulf of Finland's eastern basin, Tallinn Bay, and the city's waterfront and old town as you descend toward Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport (located southeast of the city center). Notable sights include: Gulf of Finland (broad water body), Tallinn Bay with its irregular coastline, Tallinn's medieval old town silhouette, Pirita River estuary.

The flight from Ivalo (IVL) to Tallinn (TLL) takes Approximately 50-60 minutes.

The flight path crosses from Finnish Lapland's lake-dotted boreal forest into the transition zone between Finland and Estonia. Notable features include the numerous lakes of central Finland (Pielinen and surrounding water systems visible at altitude), the gradual shift from dense forest to more open terrain as you approach the Estonian border, and the emergence of the Gulf of Finland's northern coastline. The landscape transitions from the rugged, glacially-carved terrain of Finnish Lapland to the flatter, more maritime-influenced landscape of northern Estonia. At cruise altitude, the vast expanse of boreal forest with its characteristic lake-and-forest mosaic dominates the view for most of the flight, with the Gulf of Finland becoming increasingly prominent as you approach Tallinn.
