The global aviation industry continues to grow every year; however, the demand for air transportation has exceeded the available capacity, leading to delays and economic losses for passengers, airlines, and airports. To restore balance between time slots and available capacity, many busy airports adopt demand management methods. Currently, the main demand management mechanism used in practice is the Worldwide Airport Slot Guidelines (WASG) established by the International Air Transport Association (IATA). This study approaches the problem from the perspective of civil aviation authorities and employs optimization techniques to plan the time slot allocation for a season of airline schedules.
This study focuses on the short-term operational considerations of two airports in northern Taiwan. From the perspective of civil aviation authorities, the existing resources are utilized effectively. Taking into account the priorities set by the Worldwide Airport Slot Guidelines (WASG) and considering the limitations of airport capacity, a mathematical programming approach is used to establish a time slot allocation model that integrates the two airports. The objective of the model is to minimize changes in time slot requests. The model is implemented using the C++ programming language and the mathematical programming software CPLEX to obtain the optimal solution.
Finally, the study conducts example simulations and sensitivity analyses by adjusting different parameters using the initial time slot requests of the two airports in northern Taiwan. These evaluations assess the practicality of the model. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the model in practical applications and provide guidance for civil aviation authorities in future time slot allocation planning. |
