A legal challenge to the government's decision to allow the expansion of Lydd Airport in Kent is to be heard at the High Court later this month.
The £25m project includes a runway extension of almost 300m (328yds) and a new terminal building.
Campaigners are opposed to the expansion as the site is close to the Dungeness nuclear plant, an RSPB nature reserve and a military range.
The RSPB and Lydd Airport Action Group (LAAG) have lodged separate appeals.
LAAG's bid to quash the decision will be heard at the High Court on 23 and 24 January.
