Empresa aérea Latam: estudo direcionado à otimização de deslocamento de tripulantes da Latam no período de pernoite

Abstract

This work presents a proposal for ground transportation for company LATAM’s crew in the displacements between airport x hotel and hotel x airport during the trips to work, having as benefits: greater agility, reliability, comfort and reduction of costs. Migrating from the model of exclusive vehicles to shared vehicles requested through mobile applications is a trend that adds positive values, as is already the case in many companies in different lines of activity. This project proposes that LATAM cease to use the chartering of vans to use vehicles of land transport applications. The vans are paid per trip (transfer) that by the type of vehicle (van), contracting regime and flight schedules, makes it impossible to use these vans by other customers, making them exclusively used by LATAM and with high cost. In turn, the use of vehicles from ground transport applications, also paid per trip, allows shared use with other users of the application throughout the day. As the number of crew per aircraft exceeds the passenger capacity of light vehicles, it would be necessary to replace one van with two light vehicles for each transfer. In this scenario of using ground transport applications where the supply of shared vehicles is much larger than that of vans, where the fixed costs of the vehicles are prorated by a greater number of displacements throughout the day, and considering that the travel time of the crew implies in the number of hours available to work and in the interval between work days, it intend to achieve the desired benefits.
