考虑超售的航空客运舱位控制模型

Airline Seat Inventory Control Modeling under Overbooking

本文研究航空运输收益管理的舱位控制在超售情况下的静态建模问题。通过将机票销售过程模拟成排队过程,以收益最大化为目标函数,首先给出了单等级票价下的超售水平公式。然后将该思路推广到多等级票价情况,应用动态规划方法建立了一种舱位控制静态模型,由该模型推导出了各等级舱位最优订座限制的决策方程。最后分析了一个实例以说明决策方程的应用。

The seat inventory control under overbooking for airline revenue management was studied in this paper.Firstly,a simple overbooking equation was given for single-class seat inventory flight,with seat reservation process simulated as queuing process and maximized flight revenue as objective function.Then the idea was extended to multi-class seat inventory situation by using dynamic program to build up static model of seat inventory control.Furthermore,optimal seat reservation decision equations of each level seat inventory were obtained.Finally,an instance was analyzed to show the utilization of the decision equations.
