Kuressaare Airport

Kuressaare Airport, coded URE, serves the island of Saaremaa, Estonia's largest island, located in the Baltic Sea. The airport connects Kuressaare, the island's main town, with Tallinn and other destinations, playing an essential role for residents and tourists given the island's separation from mainland Estonia.
