Abstract

This paper focuses on the usability of optimisation models to support the re-routing of air traffic flows in Europe. It discusses different modelling approaches and proposes three integer programming models, with different levels of detail, aimed at re-routing air traffic flows. The models are tested on a set of test data based on the actual traffic crossing the whole French upper airspace. The paper arrives at conclusions on the usability, limitations and extensions of the models.
