Its a very long aircraft and will the pier served stands be sufficient to park it or will it be a case of remote parking? I know a 747-300 has been on stand before but is it shorter or longer?
Yes it can be accommodated on stand 30 (stand 9), and if it couldn't be, then we would just reconfigure the stands so we could accommodate a B777-300 on Pier.

Regarding the hill of runway 25. If it was an issue they wouldn't look to operate the aircraft if it was going to hugely impact and restrict capacity on the route.
