Map of public transport stops at Tallinn Airport
The airport’s main bus stop is located at the northern (i.e. city) end of the passenger terminal, to which an escalator or elevator and walkway will bring you from the Arrivals area. In addition there is a bus stop in front of the car park right on Tartu highway – it is a short walk from the terminal.
Tickets to public transport
- Both the Ühiskaart (Tallinn’s public transport card) and single tickets can be used on city buses.
- For a single trip, purchase a QR ticket (2€) online or from the ticket machine in the waiting area by the airport’s tram and bus stop.
- QR tickets are valid for one hour.
- Tickets for single trips can also be purchased by tapping a contactless bank card against the validator inside the front door of the bus and tram.
- If you would like to purchase an Ühiskaart and load money onto it, you can do so at R-kiosk in the public part of the terminal next to the Arrivals area.
- Prices and guide to buying a ticket is available HERE.
Connection to other towns
Some long-distance buses arriving in Tallinn via Tartu Highway also stop at the airport. However, not all buses do so, even upon request – so make sure you choose one that does stop at the airport and notify the driver when entering the bus that you wish to stop there. Find your coach to Estonian cities and towns here.
Note: all Lux Express buses that enter Tallinn along the Tartu highway also stop at the Airport bus stop – both Tallinn-Tartu and Tallinn-Tartu-Võru routes.
Take a bus from Tallinn Coach Station
The Tallinn Coach Station is only 2,4 km from the airport and you can get there by either tram, bus or taxi. From there you can take buses to other Estonian locations as well as international buses.
