An integrated aircraft routing, crew scheduling and flight retiming model

In the integrated aircraft routing, crew scheduling and flight retiming problem, a minimum-cost set of aircraft routes and crew pairings must be constructed while choosing a departure time for each flight leg within a given time window. Linking constraints ensure that the same schedule is chosen for both the aircraft routes and the crew pairings, and impose minimum connection times for crews th...
