Abstract
This paper studies the effects of different optimization objectives when scheduling de-icing services at Stockholm Arlanda airport. The optimized schedule is tested using a simulation model of the turn-around process. The results demonstrate that the schedule taking into account overall airport performance results in less delay than one targeted solely at the performance of the de-icing process.
► We model the turn-around process at Stockholm Arlanda airport using simulation. ► A heuristic is used to optimize the de-icing services. ► Two optimized de-icing schedules are compared. ► The schedule targeting total airport performance results in less delay.
