The changes will mean A320 and 737 aircraft could fly to the islands.
Government funding has been approved to begin construction on the lengthening and strengthening the runway at Chatham Islands (Tuuta) Airport.
The upgrade will mean the airport and its runway could be used by Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 jet aircraft.
Chatham Islands Airport confirmed the announcement on Wednesday and said the funding is in addition to that previously approved to complete a pre-construction design process.
Downer New Zealand and BECA have been chosen to manage the project.
