Abstract

The aircraft assignment (or tail assignment) problem is to determine the routes flown by each aircraft in a given fleet, such that each flight is included in exactly one route and the aircraft visit maintenance stations according to regulations. Before this problem is solved, an airline has to: i) construct the timetable of flights, and ii) decide the aircraft type of each flight (fleet assignment). The aircraft assignment problem, thus, is a vehicle scheduling problem for a homogeneous fleet where all flight activities are fixed in time.
