Notable sights include: Gulf of Finland, Estonian archipelago (Naissaar and Aegna islands), Tallinn city sprawl receding below, Baltic Sea horizon.

Notable sights include: Cenderawasih Bay, Biak Island's northern coastline, volcanic ridges and forested interior, Supiori Island to the west.

The flight from Tallinn (TLL) to Frans Kaisiepo (BIK) takes Approximately 18-20 hours with at least one fuel stop (likely in Middle East or South Asia).
