Draw a schedule map that maximizes aircraft productivity for both aircraft and covers the routes listed. The schedule map must use peak-time departures for at least two flights and must make connections during the bank times. You may create your schedule map by hand or digitally.
The third piece of the airline planning processing is schedule mapping. A host of variables must be taken into account when considering schedules, including maintenance checks, airport capabilities, crew availability, and aircraft performance and capacities. In this assignment you will approach schedule mapping in a more simplistic manner. You will consider only banking times, turnaround times, and maximizing aircraft productivity.
You are continuing your consulting work for Wolverine Airlines. Wolverine has one hub located at Chicago O’Hare (ORD). It has two Boeing 737-700 aircraft that will be serving the following routes:
ORD-SFO (2.5-hour flight time)
ORD-SLC (1.5-hour flight time)
ORD-IAD (2-hour flight time)
Wolverine must use these aircraft to make one round-trip between ORD-SFO and two round-trips each for ORD-SLC and ORD-IAD. The minimum turnaround time Wolverine allocates for this aircraft is 45 minutes.
Wolverine would like to take advantage of peak-time departures (08:00-09:00 and 17:00-18:00) on as many departures as possible. Bank times at ORD are as follows:
10:00-11:30 AM
13:00-14:30 PM
16:00-17:30 PM
Flights can begin as early as 06:00 and run until 22:00. The ORD-SFO round-trip flight may connect through another city if desired.
