Equipment scheduling problem with close covering model in an airport

Safety and passenger satisfaction in airline transportation is important. In recent years, the development of the software has been competing among airlines. In airline transportation, basic airline problems such as engineering, aircraft and flight scheduling, airline crew costs, are accompanied by large costs. Crew costs that are not particularly accurate to airline companies will incur large costs. With the right engineering work and the appropriate algorithms and models, these planning are made accurately, so that airline companies can get serious savings. For airline companies, each of them, such as team scheduling, flight scheduling, airplane scheduling, fleet assignment, are the main subjects requiring a separate study in their field. In this thesis study, the airline planning processes were first mentioned. The algorithms and methods used to make each airline scheduling and create these scheduling are mentioned. Within the scope of the work, more team planning has been focused on the importance and costs for an airline company. During the application phase, the data was taken from a private airline and the solution was initiated on a weekly flight schedule. The thesis study has been utilized in two different programming languages. The first phase of the program was resolved via the GAMS software and the second phase was solved through the LINGO software.
