Key: a = air; l = land; w = water.
Notes: Trade excludes low-value shipments (imports valued at less than $1,250
and exports valued at less than $2,500). Air: Includes a low level (generally
less than 2%-3% of the total value) of small user-fee airports located in
the same region. Air gateways not identified by airport name (e.g., Chicago,
IL) include major airport(s) in that geographic area in addition to small
regional airports. Due to Census Bureau confidentiality regulations, courier
operations are included in the airport totals for JFK, New Orleans, Los
Angeles, Chicago, Miami, and Anchorage. Numbers may not add to totals due
to rounding.
