==Runway Usage==
Most days (about 60%), whenever the winds are westerly or southerly, runway 22R is used for departures while planes land on runway 22L. When the winds are easterly or northerly, departures are from runway 04R and landings take place on 04L. In both situations, depending on the traffic load, air traffic control might onle in a while toss a landings in on runway 30. Other than that, runway 12/30 is only used in extreme situations such as emergencies, extreme wind conditions, runway closure due to snow etc. This is due to the fact that the use of runway 12/30 will cause a lot of noise over the city, whereas both arrivals and departures using the two parallel runways primeraly fly over the water.
If in doubt about the present runway usage, you can always listen in on the ATIS frequencies (mentioned above).
