A major problem faced by every airline is to construct a daily schedule for a heterogeneous aircraft fleet. In the present paper implementation of aircraft routing and scheduling for cargo transportation, known as one of the scheduling problem in transportation, in an air-line is presented. First, problems faced by the company are defined and then implementation steps and expected improvements that will result from carrying out the solution of mathematical model of the problem are given in detail. The purpose of this paper is to describe, analyze and evaluate a case study of how an aircraft scheduling was managed in an air-line.
