About Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport

Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport lies in the high northern latitudes at 59.41° N, 24.83° E, on Europe/Tallinn time (UTC+3). At this latitude winter brings long nights, de-icing and snow clearance, and the great-circle routes that pass overhead run closer to the pole than a flat map suggests.

Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport has 1 runway. The longest, 08/26, measures 11,417 ft by 148 ft, which puts the field in the long-haul capable category: widebodies operate comfortably, though the very longest sectors may need a payload trade. The surface is asphalt. It is lit for night operations.

Runway 08/26 is aligned roughly east/west, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. Every runway here shares that east/west alignment, so a strong crosswind means a crosswind landing rather than a switch to another strip.
