Abstract :
Process modeling of airline passenger processes from their arrival at the airport until they board their flight requires a model of the arrival process of passengers at the airport. The model of passenger arrival describes the varying arrival rate of passengers at the airport. This paper describes a method for quickly modeling passenger arrival using publicly available airline data.
