T5A has three Code E (up to 744 size) gates: A18, A17 and A14, although A17 and A14 can only be used by a Code E aircraft if A15 is not in use.

A18 regularly used to see the 744 pre-pandemic, and I have seen this gate be used by 772s and 767s too. I have never seen anything larger than a 767 at A17 or A14.

A12, A8 and A5 are all Code D (up to 767 size) gates and were regularly used by the 767 fleet until their retirement in 2018.
