Abstract: This paper studies the effects of different optimization objectives when scheduling de-icing services at Stockholm Arlanda airport. The optimized schedule is tested using a simulation model of the turn-around process. The results demonstrate that the schedule taking into account overall airport performance results in less delay than one targeted solely at the performance of the de-icing process.
