Abstract: A method and system for airline crewmembers to interactively query, bid, and receive a work schedule via a network is provided. Each crewmember is able to request which trips to fly and which days off are desired. Trips are awarded to individuals based on their seniority, preferences, availability and the legality to fly the trip while satisfying company constraints. Such constraints include minimum and maximum hours flown, priorities for more senior crewmembers, and airline restrictions. The resulting schedule is tentatively assigned to the crewmember, and as each crewmembers enters preferences, the schedules of other crewmembers are changed appropriately.
