摘要

航班的正常运行可能会受到各种不可预测因素的影响,导致如机场关闭、临时飞机维护等不正常航班情况发生。当不正常航班产生时,航空公司运行控制中心会采取多种方法来调整资源(包括航班时刻、飞机和机组等)的分配并重新安排旅客以实现航班计划的恢复。本文首先介绍了不正常航班生成的可能场景和一系列常见的恢复手段,接着回顾了飞机路径恢复、机组恢复和多资源整合恢复的基本模型和相关扩展研究,旨在为航空公司实际运行中不同的恢复场景提供合适的模型和方法。此外,本文还对相关课题的未来研究方向提出了建议。

Abstract

The normal operation of aircraft and flights can be affected by various unpredictable factors, such as severe weather, airport closure, and corrective maintenance, leading to disruption of the planned schedule. When a disruption occurs, the airline operation control center performs various operations to reassign resources (e.g., flights, aircraft, and crews) and redistribute passengers to restore the schedule while minimizing costs. We introduce different sources of disruption and corresponding operations. Then, basic models and recently proposed extensions for aircraft recovery, crew recovery, and integrated recovery are reviewed, with the aim of providing models and methods for different disruption scenarios in the practical implementation of airlines. In addition, we provide suggestions for future research directions in these topics.
