摘要

This study considers a freight forwarder's operational implementation of alternative access airport policy in a multi-airport region for cargo transportation. Given a set of heterogeneous air cargo customers, the forwarder's problem is to simultaneously select air cargo flight itineraries and schedule the pickup and delivery of customer loads to the airport(s). This problem is formulated as a novel pickup and delivery problem, where the delivery cost is both destination and time dependent. A mixed-integer linear model in presented and an efficient solution method based on decomposition is developed. The performance of the solution algorithm is evaluated by computational experimental study.
