The ten of the 25 biggest US airports by freight whose biggest airline carries the largest share of it. Only a few dozen airports handle much freight, so the pool is smaller than for passengers. Freight is in short tons (2,000 lb).

Share is the biggest airline's part of the airport's total. Airlines that merged are counted together (Southwest includes AirTran, Delta includes Northwest). Regional airlines flying under a major's name are listed on their own, so at that major's hubs its share is understated. Size rank is the airport's place among US airports by the same measure.
