I've always wondered how airports number their gates. They never are numbered 1,2,3,4.... Instead, you have gate numbers 10, 12, 16, 22, 24, 26, etc. In YEG, they have no gate numbers range from 8 to 64, but none are odd numbers and none in the 30s. How are gate numbers assigned/determined?

Funny, O'Hare starts gates at number one.

Frankfurt has single digit gates, charlotte has them, London, JFK, all have single digit gates.

I think you are missing the obvious, at some airports, they start at number one for each terminal, and count up till they run out of gates.
