ABSTRACT

At the interface between airport airside and landside operations, the assignment of flights to gates is key to ensure efficient operations and a high quality of service for passengers. We propose a mixed-integer linear program for an integrated flight-to-gate assignment that considers both airside as well as landside constraints on the capabilities of facilities such as check-in, security or transfer to handle passengers. Moreover, our assignment is robust in that it constrains the probability of multiple flights being assigned to the same gate. Having obtained an integrated, robust flight-to-gate assignment, we analyse the associated quality of service at the landside facilities. Overall, our model supports the design of a robust, integrated airside-landside assignment of flights to gates at an airport.

摘要

在机场空侧和陆侧运营之间的接口处，将航班分配给登机口是确保高效运营和为乘客提供优质服务的关键。我们为混合的门到门分配提出了一个混合整数线性程序，该程序考虑了空侧和陆侧对设施功能（例如办理登机手续，安检或转移旅客的能力）的限制。此外，我们的分配是稳健的，因为它限制了将多个航班分配给同一登机口的可能性。获得了完整，强大的门到门分配后，我们分析了陆上设施的相关服务质量。总体而言，我们的模型支持设计到机场登机口的稳定，统一的空侧-陆侧飞行设计。
