Abstract:
When disruptions occur, the airlines have to recover from the disrupted schedule. The recovery usually consists of aircraft recovery, crew recovery and passengers’ recovery. This paper focuses on aircraft recovery. Take the total cost of assignment, cancelation and delay as an objective; we present a more practical model, in which the maintenance and other regulations are considered. Then, we present a so-called iterative tree growing with node combination method. By aggregating nodes, the possibility of routings is greatly simplified. So, it can give out the solution in more reasonable time. Finally, we use data from a main Chinese airline to test the solution algorithm. The experimental results state that this method could be used in aircraft recovery problem.
