The paper addresses some crew scheduling problems faced by airlines during both the planning and the operational phases. Given a flight schedule and a fleet assignment, the planning process consists first in solving a crew pairing problem for each fleet of aircraft and then in constructing a monthly work schedule for each individual crew member. At the operational level, some crew pairings and schedules must be modified in order to compensate for certain disruptions that occur during the operations. The operational crew scheduling problem involves making these modifications. In the paper, the authors highlight the common structure of several crew scheduling problems. They give the general solution methodology used to derive near-optimal solutions, and even optimal solutions in some cases. They also present some of the results recently obtained for various real-world airline crew scheduling applications. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0933.00021].
