The Madrid–Barcelona air route constitutes one of the main aerial routes in the European corridor in terms of traffic demand (4.2 million passengers in 2003). To deal with such a high demand, three airline companies (Iberia, Air Europa, and Span Air) globally offer more than 60 flights per day either way. Currently, the construction of a high-speed railway line between the two cities is under w...

This paper attempts to relate certain areas of similarity between Space Shuttle operation and Airline operation. The design controlled factors affecting airline maintenance cost are discussed. The thesis is that the Space Shuttle designer should consider airline experience in areas affecting maintenance cost in order to design the most cost effective Space Shuttle System.

Decision makers in air transportation face many uncertainties. In spite of this, airline planning models do not explicitly consider uncertainty in operations. As a result, there is often a notable discrepancy between an airline’s planned and actual performance. We present a stochastic model of the daily operations of a domestic airline. Its primary purpose is to evaluate plans, such as crew sch...

We present a market-based approach to the Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) problem. The goods in our market are delays and buyers are airline companies; the latter pay money to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to buy away the desired amount of delay on a per flight basis. We give a notion of equilibrium for this market and an LP whose every optimal solution gives an equilibrium alloc...

In the aerospace industry, a maintenance history is not that easy to maintain. It can be an arduous task trying to find the part number on a component especially when the component has already been assembled and the number is the back. However, searching for the number is not the only issue in tracking the maintenance history. Since the number is written down by a person, human errors are prone...

An airline schedule very rarely operates as planned. Problems related with aircrafts, crew members and passengers are common and the actions towards the solution of these problems are usually known as operations recovery or disruption management. The Airline Operations Control Center (AOCC) tries to solve these problems with the minimum impact in the airline schedule, with the minimum cost and,...
