Narrative:
Approximately 2 hours after departure; we received a ZFW (zero fuel weight) correction over ACARS. Our ZFW was actually 1000 pounds higher than reported prior to departure. Apparently; cargo was added just prior to pushback but did not get reported to lp. Our take-off data and performance calculations were based on the wrong ZFW.
