Cargo is defined as goods that are transported by a large vehicle, a ship or an aircraft. Other terms used may be shipment or load. Cargo that does not include passengers is called freight. Passenger airplanes, for example, have also been known to transport additional cargo, though in smaller amounts than a freight vehicle. Frankfurt/Main Airport is one of the leading international airports in Germany and Europe. Among all German airports, it had the largest passenger volume, as well as the most aircraft movements.
