You've hit upon it. The plan was to include A380 gates as part of the next phase (opening 2022) at Pier 3, and latterly reviewed to be Pier 2. That's the point at which I bowed out. Of course since then we've had the world turned on its head by Covid, so who knows. We've also seen the end of the A380 programme which makes accommodating this unique aircraft type all the more marginal in a cost-benefit analysis.
