    Nothing at present and it will be 4 or 5 years at least before any sort of work happens.

    That's a pity I thought with pier E under pressure at certain times of the day even allowing for pier B been used by Aer Lingus in the morning the DAA might be planning behind the scenes and have project ready to go when the demand really cranks up!!!!

    They have the planning done but no money to pier F at T2.

    They also have plans for current Pier A, B, and a new G. A, B and F will be like Pier E while G will be like the current D one.

    Pier F and the new runway will be top of the daa's list I expect for Dublin once they have money and the current debit is gone and of course demand is their for them.

    That would require good planing and forward thinking,not something the Irish government/businesses are good at

    hope they've left space for runways. t2, once cherrypicked from the original development plan without further thought, barely leaves space for airplanes to taxi in behind. bottlenecktastic.

    Or individuals.

    The plans is for an extension to D and redeveloped B and C with extensions outwards.

    But as has been said they are on hold for better times.

    Try bird's eye view on Bing maps. It's like a map but it's taken at an angle.

    The images are from around 2009 though.
