Abstract:

We present a stochastic model of the daily operations of an airline. Its primary purpose is to evaluate plans, such as crew schedules, as well as recovery policies in a random environment. We describe the structure of the stochastic model, sources of disruptions, recovery policies, and performance measures. Then, we describe SimAir – our simulation implementation of the stochastic model, and we give computational results. Finally, we give future directions for the study of airline recovery policies and planning under uncertainty.
