Commercial traffic
Helicopter operator Copterline used the heliport for commercial flights to Tallinn. Operations began in September 2011, with seven departures daily. The helicopter used on the route was owned and maintained by the Finnish company FastClass, while flight operations were conducted by the Estonian company Copterline OÜ.
Copterline had also used the heliport earlier in the 2000s, but following the 2005 accident, the company encountered financial difficulties and was declared bankrupt in 2010.
A new heliport was planned for Hernesaari on reclaimed land. The City Planning Committee approved a draft partial master plan including the new heliport in December 2009. However, in 2013, the majority of the City Board removed the heliport from the partial master plan. The environmental permit remained valid until 2020.
