Freight 50 in 2023

The following table shows the top 50 carriers ranked by overall CTKs in 2023. Figures are in millions of CTKs.

The table, based on the 2023 World Air Transport Statistics (WATS) report from IATA, is fully interactive, allowing users to sort according to the parameters in each column.

We at Cargo Facts are proud of the comprehensive portrait this Freight 50 listing paints for the air cargo carrier business. We use multiple sources, including IATA, U.S. Department of Transportation and the self-reporting from individual carriers to provide the following dataset. We also acknowledge a perfect list is nearly impossible to compile and figures may vary depending on reporting method and carrier classifications. If you spot any errors, please contact us.

Unlike Freight 50 rankings from 2021 and earlier, the data has not been organized by carrier group, but by individual carrier.
