There will be 8 code F contact stands, and 7 remote code F stands.

6 of the contact stands will be on the 3rd finger pier closest to T1, with 3 on each side (will also be MARS stands), one will be on the pier closest to the M56 so that pre clearance gates have a code F stand if needed, and the last contact stand will be gate 12, which will remain code F as not only a relief gate, but also, it will remain the main A380 gate until the bulk of construction is done.

The 7 remotes will be where the current stand 61 is, and, 5 on cargo so they can handle the B747-8F freighters.

The last code F gate will be in a small triangle of apron between the last finger pier and B pier, this will be where aircraft such as the AN225 park if they visit.
