Cargo
tonnage at Miami International airport was up slightly for the first 10
months of 2013. Total tonnage was 1.72 million tonnes, a 0.68-percent
increase over the same period in 2012. If this increase percentage
remains steady for the remainder of the year, it will set a new cargo
record for the airport, according to the Florida Foreign Trade Association.
Both
deplaned and emplaned domestic cargo are below the same 10-month period
in 2012. Emplanned tonnage for October 2013 was up by 2 percent over
October 2012. International deplaned cargo was up 5.72 percent for the
10-month period while emplaned cargo was down by 3.29 percent.
