A new aircrew-scheduling model for short-haul routes

Shaw Ching Chang

Journal of Air Transport Management, 2002, vol. 8, issue 4, 249-260

Abstract: The aircrew-scheduling model proposed here considers not only the performance of the crew scheduling process but also the flexibility of an irregular operation. A genetic algorithm is applied to solve this problem efficiently. In case of airline operations, with many scattered skeleton activities and frequently unexpected irregular events especially for the short-haul airlines, the method is more effective than the traditional aircrew-scheduling model.
