Landing Fees at hub airports

Anyone have any info? I could only find KATL information and its 2 years old. I can find that airports charge a landing fee but not what that fee is. Why is this not more transparent? Is it possible for two of the same aircraft on the same day to pay entirely different landing fees? These are considered taxes yes? Just morbidly curious.

Thanks in advance.

If you call yourself "Southwest ###" on initial contact, your airline gets a 10% discount and you get to go in front of the carrier of your choice (so that would be Delta).

Flew a light twin (DA42) into Hartsfield a few years back, bought 20 gal of jet-a from the FBO (Atlantic I think) and used the crew car to eat and the landing fee was about $13

ATL's is based on class and weight of airplane.

You might try the FBO's website for the other airports AirNav: Airport Information. Sometimes they will have that info. Landing fees were reasonable (12?) at both IAD and DCA (ok, that was a long time ago). Ramp and Parking fees get pricey (25/day IIRC).

I know that 17lbs of air for a nose wheel on a Saturday at Dulles is $300.

I found that site but it just simply states something to the effect of:
"Landing Fees: Yes"

Thanks though.

DFW is $2.82 or $3.53 per 1000 pounds of max landing weight depending if the airline has facilities at the airport or not. GA is $70-$150 based on weight.
