Audience
This course addresses planners with a basic understanding of the Carmen Crew Pairing system.

Benefits
The course gives you a deeper understanding of the Carmen Crew Pairing system by introducing you to a variety of pairing problems and taking you through most system features. After completing the course you will be able to:

  • Solve problems with variable crew needs
  • Solve problems with crew augmentation
  • Solve jumper problems
  • Ensure similarity between different solutions
  • Ensure regularity in dated solutions
  • Use ground transports, OAG flights and Coterminals
  • Distribute production between bases
  • Use soft locks
  • Use global constraints

Prerequisites
A good understanding of the Carmen Crew Pairing system.

Course topics

  • Varying crew need
    • Variable crew need
    • Crew augmentation
    • Solution strategies

  • Imitation
    • Jumpers planning
    • Cabin crew imitation
    • Imitate standard solution
    • Measure imitation
    • Control the level of imitation

  • Ground transports, OAG flights and Coterminals
    • Define ground transports
    • Filter and include ground transports
    • OAGs - in local plan or stand alo
    • Performance consequences
    • Use Coterminals

  • Global Constraints
    • Base constraints
    • Standard Global Constraints

All exercises are done using a generic flight data and rule set ("Carmen Airlines").
