, 2008, p. 83). In addition, software engineers have also created a new flight scheduling model for Delta Airlines and U.S. Airways and other researchers are examining ways to use existing airspace more efficiently through other software solutions (Hasan & Hammad, 2010).
Conclusion
Flight scheduled was shown to be fraught with opportunities for delays, including arrivals and departures, en route congestion, en route severe weather, and airport weather, and unexpected eventualities in any of these areas can create significant delays and flight cancellations. The research was absolutely consistent in showing that such flight delays are costly to both passengers and air carriers alike, but the research also showed that even the most sophisticated software solutions cannot overcome airport congestion caused by air carriers scheduling their flights without regard for the impact of these decisions on their domestic and international competition. In the final analysis, all types of travel have their inherent potentials for delays and there is no perfect solution, but the problems...
