Simulation Modeling and Analysis of In-Flight Service Operations for Commercial Passenger Flights
Nowadays, in-flight comfort has become an essential characteristic to survive in domestic airline businesses. Air hostesses’ quality of service and response time to customer demand plays a vital role in enhancing quality of the flight experience and passenger satisfaction. However, additional requirements on air hostess expose them to fatigue which could eventually result in job dissatisfac...
متن کاملSolving the Airline Recovery Problem By Using Ant Colony Optimization
In this paper an Ant Colony (ACO) algorithm is developed to solve aircraft recovery while considering disrupted passengers as part of objective function cost. By defining the recovery scope, the solution always guarantees a return to the original aircraft schedule as soon as possible which means least changes to the initial schedule and ensures that all downline affects of the disruption are ...
متن کاملExploring Energy Efficiency and Service Quality of Airlines with Cruise Speed Control
In the past decade, fuel consumption and CO2 emission have increased in the airline industry. Large CO2 footprint has a damaging effect on the environment. Global concerns over this issue has made the airline industry to be greener. Most efforts of the green airline industry are improving the fuel consumption to reduce the CO2 emission and its environmental damage. Here, we use cruise speed con...
متن کاملImproving Airline Network Robustness and Operational Reliability by Sequential Optimisation Algorithms
A sequential optimisation algorithm is developed to improve the operational reliability of airline schedules. Simulation results show that departure delays are reduced by 30% after optimisation by using extra 260 min buffer times in the schedule. This also increases the network-wide schedule reliability from 37 to 52% and an estimated delay cost saving of $20 million dollars per annum for a sma...
متن کاملMedical aspects of airline operations. II: Aircrew schedules and emergency considerations.
The need to operate commercial airlines world wide for 24 hours each day inevitably leads to problems of aircrew management: to the stresses of flying an aircraft must be added those of unsocial and irregular hours, time zone (transmeridian), climatic and cultural changes, sleep disturbances, and alterations to circadian rhythms. Fatigue is the main danger, since a decline in performance is lik...
