Five
all-cargo airlines (Airborne Express, BAX Global,
Emery World-wide, FedEx, and UPS), including many of
the passenger airlines and several freight
forwarders, provide cargo services at El Paso
International Airport. The total volume of air cargo
at the Airport has risen dramatically over the past
ten years, reflecting the expansion of trade in the
region. Air cargo volume levels are expected to
reach 450,000 tons by 2017.
