Tallinn Airport (IATA: TLL, ICAO: EETN) is the largest international airport in Estonia. The airport is also officially called Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport (Estonian: Lennart Meri Tallinna lennujaam) after the former president of Estonia Lennart Meri.
The airport is located 2.7 nautical miles (5.0 km; 3.1 mi) southeast of the city centre of Estonian capital Tallinn, on the eastern shore of Lake Ülemiste. It was previously known until 2009 as Tallinn Ülemiste Airport. The airport has a single asphalt/concrete runway, 08/26, that is 3,480 m × 45 m (11,417 ft × 148 ft) and large enough to handle wide-bodied aircraft such as the Boeing 747, six taxiways and seventeen terminal gates.
