Abstract: Abstract Operations research models are widely used in the airline industry. By using sophisticated optimization models and algorithms many airlines are able to improve profitability. In this paper we review these models and the underlying solution methodologies. We focus on models involving strategic business processes as well as operational processes. The former models include schedule design and fleeting, aircraft routing, and crew scheduling, while the latter models cope with irregular operations.
