Comparison of optimization techniques for origin-destination seat inventory control
([Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology], Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1988], 1988)
Airlines have recently realized the importance of an effective seat inventory control system on revenues and profits. Yet, at the same time, there is a lack of practical optimization models for determining the number of ...
Solving the schedule transition problem using optimization techniques
([Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Transportation Laboratory, 1988], 1988)
A new algorithm is introduced for effectively solving the airline schedule transition problem, which involves efficiently re-routing aircraft in order to balance the number and the types of aircraft at each station at the ...
Air travel demand and airline seat inventory management
(Cambridge, MA : Flight Transportation Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1987], 1987)
Many airlines practice differential pricing of fare products that share a common inventory of available seats on an aircraft. Seat inventory management is the process of limiting the number of seats made available to each ...
System design for express airlines
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1987], 1987)
In this thesis we investigate and analyze express airlines for the purpose of system design. Chapter 1 contains a taxonomy for express carriers that is built around elemental system components, distinguishable from one ...
