Summary :

Boarding is the last step of aircraft turnaround and its completion in the shortest possible time is desired. In this paper, we propose a new boarding strategy that outperforms conventional strategies such as the back-to-front strategy and the outside-in strategy. The Steffen method is known as one of the most efficient boarding strategies in literature, but it is hard to be realized in the real situation because the complete sorting of passengers in a prescribed order is required. The proposed strategy shows a performance close to that of the Steffen method and can be easily implemented by using a special gate system.
