What transportation method are you looking to take?
Public transportation will take you around an hour, taxi should be 25-30 min and isn't cheap

How long do I need to clear the airport? Making the minyan is a priority so I would take the taxi route probably.

If it takes that quick and you land on time you should be good with the train as well.

Had the same issue. From what I gather its just a nice place nothing "must see". I read about day trips to Tallin Estonia and Visa free travel to St. Petersburg, Russia, both via ferry.
