We propose a decision support system that covers the complete life cycle of the airline crew scheduling process. A tool has been designed to meet the requirements for both planning and operational phase. We develop a general infrastructure for the crew management tasks in which alternative solution methods, such as mathematical programming and heuristics, can be easily incorporated. Besides the conventional two-phase scheduling (crew pairing and crew assignment) in the planning phase, the focus of our research lies on a partially integrated approach including an extension for the consideration of teams during the assignment step. For daily operations, we suggest a dedicated crew recovery approach to handle unexpected disruptions. A test case is presented to illustrate the system’s capabilities in solving a real-life problem for a medium-sized European airline.
