The Sunport sees regular cargo services from FedEx and UPS.  UPS typically utilizes the Airbus A300-600R (F), Boeing 767-300ERF, and Boeing 757-200PF.  FedEx from time to time sends its A300-600R (F) to Albuquerque, though the Boeing 757/767 are more common. They also operate Cessna 208B Super Cargomaster aircraft throughout New Mexico, with the flights originating in Albuquerque. These flights are operated by Empire Airlines.  As a rare treat, the DC-10 has been known to make an appearance, from usually 10 Tanker Air Carrier, FedEx, or UPS.
