Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport is known as a cargo flight hub, one of the busiest in the world. This week, a new start-up air cargo based in Mexico received approval to begin serving in the U.S. and will be seen by plane-spotters coming and going from Anchorage.

Awesome Cargo joins about 47 air carriers — 27 domestic and 18 international — that come through Anchorage, with about 44 cargo destinations served.

Anchorage ranks third in the world for cargo transit through its airport and in 2023 Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport surpassed Shanghai Pudong Airport. About 3.461 million tons of cargo flies in and out of Anchorage annually.

  1. Harris visited the Mexican president recently right? Then, a small Ohio town got slammed with 50,000 unknowns. Hmmmm. I am wagering that the cargo they will be bringing to Alaska is in human skin sacks.

  2. And I was thinking the very same prior to reading the comment section. Sheeeeeeee, not that we are of great minds, but consistent in content.

  3. Oh yes! Human cargo will come in bulk. The fine citizens of Alaska will be forced to house, clothe, feed, and entertain them. Look at Aurora, CO and Ohio, its coming our way!
