Tallinn - Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport
It is very easy to find public transport between Tallinn Airport and every point of the city. Trams, trolley buses and trains were built on a transit system with buses, which is the busiest public transport vehicle in the city. Bussijaam, one of the two main bus terminals in the city, has direct buses to the airport.
The 800 meters distance between the airport and the railway station also means that you can walk to the airport as soon as you reach this station. All you have to do is reach the train station by tram, trolley bus or bus. Apart from all these options, it is also possible to arrange your own transportation by renting a car in Tallinn which also offers many options about taxis.

If you have reached Tallinn by train from another city and want to go directly to the airport, you can walk to the airport in about 10 minutes. There are direct buses, trams and trolleybus lines to this station from many points of the city.

Tram and Trolleybus
Tallinn trams and trolleys are mostly used in urban transport. The massive Tallinn Tramway project is expected to be completed by 2017. It is aimed by this project to connect the airport and the city by tram line. Trolleybus expanding work is still carried out because there are fewer lines compared to buses.
