A method, medium, and system to receive a planned flight schedule and an actual flight schedule; determine root cause disturbances for the actual flight schedule based on the planned flight schedule and the actual flight schedule; evaluate a robustness of the planned flight schedule based on an execution of a simulation-based model to generate a set of quantitative metrics for the planned flight schedule; generate a record of the root cause disturbances and a record of the set of quantitative metrics for the planned flight plan; evaluate a robustness of a test flight schedule based on an execution of the simulation-based model and the determined root cause disturbances applied to the simulation-based model to generate a set of quantitative metrics for the test flight schedule; and generate a record of the set of quantitative metrics for the test flight plan.

Method and system for automatic evaluation of robustness and disruption management for commercial airline flight operations

A method, medium, and system to receive actual flight schedule data, including flight details associated with each flight of the actual flight schedule; determine an estimate of at least one of airline operations performance constraints and metrics based on the actual flight schedule data and at least one of business rules and an execution of a simulation-based model; and generate a record of corrected actual flight data based on the estimate of at least one of airline operations performance constraints and metrics and the actual flight data.

System and method for rule-based analytics of temporal-spatial constraints on noisy data for commercial airlineflight operations

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for scheduling aircraft maintenance events. One system includes a user interface and at least one processor. The system is configured to receive an indication that an unscheduled maintenance event for an aircraft is to be scheduled, and to determine, using the at least one processor, a maintenance schedule for completing the unscheduled maintenance event on the aircraft, a modified flight schedule for the aircraft, and a modified aircraft schedule for the aircraft based on the unscheduled maintenance event, an initial flight schedule, an initial aircraft schedule, and at least one selectable parameter indicative of user preferences to reduce a total cost of operating the at least one aircraft. The system is configured to provide at least one of the maintenance schedule, the modified flight schedule, and the modified aircraft schedule to the user interface.

System, method, and apparatus for scheduling aircraft maintenance events

An airline operations control system for an airline having multiple aircraft and multiple routes formed by one or more flights where the airline operations control system includes a computer searchable database a query module configured to query the database and a display module and a method of controlling operation of the airline having the multiple aircraft and the multiple routes.
