History
Home to FedEx Express's Memphis Superhub — the largest cargo airport in North America by tonnage, often the largest in the world. The cargo operation dwarfs the passenger side; the airport ships through more freight on a single FedEx night-sort cycle than most airports do passengers in a month.

About this profile
Reference data (codes, coordinates, elevation, runways, owner, opening date) is curated from each airport's official authority page, the FAA's airport reference system for US airports, NAV CANADA and Transport Canada for Canadian airports, and AFAC and the operating concessionaire for Mexican airports. Latest passenger figures are CY 2023 totals where confidently sourced.
Live METAR and TAF are fetched from NOAA's Aviation Weather Center on each page load. NOTAMs (US airports) are fetched from the FAA NOTAM Search. If a source is unreachable when this page loads, the corresponding section displays an "unavailable" message rather than a blank or stale value.
This data is re-verified on a recurring monthly cadence aligned to the FAA's NASR 28-day cycle.
