Abstract
Demand-driven dispatch is a well-known example of a successful integration of revenue management and scheduling practices. We provide an overview of this process of dynamic capacity reallocation based on information available in revenue management systems. The reasons for revenue performance improvements are provided and existing practical approaches as well as possible ways of improvement and future development are described.

Demand Driven Dispatch is an operating concept that addresses the assignment of airplane capacity to flight schedules to meet fluctuating market needs by dynamically assigned to flights to better match the predicted final demands.

A simple algorithm is given for making this swap that will not affect the equipment type composition of aircraft overnighting at the various stations and two further applications of the swapping procedure are described in the airline schedule development process.
Transportation ScienceDynamic Airline Scheduling
54 Citations2009Hai Jiang, Cynthia Barnhart
The reoptimization approach, redesigning the flight schedule at regular intervals, uses information from both revealed booking data and improved forecasts available at later reoptimizations, which helps match capacity to demand given the many operational constraints that restrict possible assignments.
