Madam, - If one were to face the current terminal at Dublin Airport, and scan from left to right, one would find Pier C on the left, Pier B in the centre, Pier A to the right, and now the newly opened Pier D on the far right. Is it too much to expect that the Dublin Airport Authority might place such letters in their alphabetical order? Isn't our passage to, from and indeed through the building not sufficiently difficult as it is? - Yours, etc,

Madam, - At the official opening of Dublin Airport's Pier D, the chairman of the Dublin Airport Authority, Garry McGann,remarked that he travelled through some 1,000 airports annually (The Irish Times, November 13th).
As the chairman of an airport authority one can only assume that he checks in for flights at least the recommended two hours before departure. Given this, and simple mathematics, it is amazing that he has any time actually to do the job he's paid to do. - Yours, etc,
RICHARD BANNISTER, Pembroke Square, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4.
