Some guide details are currently in English. The menu and section headings follow your selected language.
Guide edition: October 2026. This is planning guidance, not a live timetable or booking quote. Check the linked operator for your travel date.
OPTION 01
T2 heads toward Kopli via the harbour; T4 toward Tondi through the centre. From arrivals follow public transport signs, using the lift/escalator to the walkway. Return: board T2 or T4 marked Lennujaam. Buy with a contactless bank card at an onboard validator, or use the airport ticket machine.
OPTION 02
This stop is a short walk from the terminal, separate from the tram centre. Check your exact direction in the official planner. QR tickets must be scanned on boarding; tap a bank card at the onboard validator to buy a single ticket.

Follow the route-specific instructions above. A paper ticket may need stamping, an app ticket may need activation, and a contactless journey may require both entry and exit taps. These are different systems: do not assume one rule applies everywhere.
Use official machines, counters or the operator’s app. Keep the ticket or payment device until you have left the final station. A payment receipt is not always the travel ticket.
Before buying, enter every child’s exact age and check whether an infant needs a reserved seat. Resident or school concessions may not apply to visitors. Confirm luggage and pushchair rules with the airport-service operator.
Do not assume a 24-, 48- or 72-hour city pass includes the airport, a premium express service or a regional onward journey. Check the named operator, zones and airport supplements first.
Use the taxi rank in front of arrivals; confirm the fare before departing. App pickups follow the location displayed in the app.
Expected cost
Around €15 to the centre, the tourism board’s indicative estimate; actual fare can vary.
Taxi information ↗App availability and airport pickup rules vary. Use the airport’s named providers; a ride available in the city may not be authorised to collect at every terminal.
Start with your airline’s required airport arrival time. Add the full ground journey, walking between terminals, waiting time and a buffer for disruption. For a route with changes, check the first local departure as well as the airport service.
An early flight may leave before public transport starts. Compare a pre-booked taxi, an earlier coach or an airport-area overnight stay.
Select the actual date, direction and terminal. Check weekday, weekend and holiday schedules, the last service and any replacement buses. A scheduled time is not necessarily a live prediction.
