Cough,

we tend not to take destinations into account for medium aircraft. Usually the heavies going to KLAX or RJAA etc will be considered with regards to how quickly they are likely to roll with arriving traffic, or more likely, whether or not to offer intersections for departure. Conversely, some heavies, such as 747 cargo aircraft going to EHAM or LIML will rotate early and climb quickly, in such case it could have an effect on departure (route), as opposed to wake turbulence, separation.
