The problem of airline crew scheduling is studied, the different problems composing it are formulated and solution techniques are offered. Special emphasis is given to the set covering problem appearing in the rotation selection phase. An approach is presented, based on the group theoretic method, which allows the fast solution of problems with large sizes
