Dublin Airport is getting a new addition which means more flights for everybody. Yay!
Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe told the Irish Examiner that a second parallel runway will be built in the airport.
The extension is due to be completed in 2020 and will cost a total of €320 million.
The Minister said: "I am satisfied that the proposed second runway is value for money and that the infrastructure meets the needs we have now.
"It is funny, I always keep in mind the experience of Terminal 2, which holds very valuable lessons.
“Terminal 2 was built at a time when it looked like the capacity would not be utilised and the price tag for it appeared exceptionally high.
"If you look at where we are now, that terminal has played a crucial role in Dublin Airport becoming a hub airport and is already extremely busy."
The construction of the runway was supposed to being in 2007 but was put on hold due to the economic downturn.
