Please refer interested instructors to TIE for access to the teaching feelings. introduction students absorb been introduced to taxation management. Have previously assigned the case in put across of class and then spent from 30 transactions to adept hour of class time discussing the students solutions. When using all three cases, shed assigned the (A) and (B) Cases in advance of class and asked the students to submit spreadsheets with solutions to both cases onwards class begins. During the 90- minute class we would devote approximately 40 minutes to discussing the (A) Case, 20 minutes on the (B) Case, and the remaining 30 minutes work through theCase together in class (students are told in advance to bring their laptops to class). Usually ask students to pair up, and I try to train a student with relatively little simulation experience with unmatchable who is more comfortable with the actual. I tell pairs that the weaker student should be the virtuoso with hands on the keyboard. Finally, a note on timing have used this full plan for Cases (A)-(C) only once, in an elective on service operations management. The schedule was a bit tight and we had to speed up the discussion of the spiral-down effect in the (C) Case.In the future whitethorn spread the material over more than one class period. These cases focus on the tax revenue enhancement management of a single flight leg with two number classes and uncertain demand. The (A) Case asks the students to forecast high-fare demand and implement a unsophisticated bookings policy. The (B) Case uses simulation to establish booking limits in the presence of buy-up fashion and cancellations. The (C) Case focuses on the spiral-down effect, which occurs when there is a mismatch between the revenue management optimization manikin and actual customer behavior.This Teach ins observation first describes the logistics for using the cases the order of the cases, choosing assignments, and the timing of class discussions. Then the note summarizes each case, describes potential solutions, and provides guidelines for class discussions. The last section describes technical background, extensions, and excess reference material. The final section may be particularly utilizable for instructors without a strong background in revenue management as the section or its references may provide answers to students questions about the implementation of revenue management systems.The final section also explains how the models in this case may be adapted to handle multiple itineraries in an airline Nortek, as scribed in the Bluesy Airlines Network Revenue counseling Case Series. Single-Leg Revenue Management (A) This case provides students with the opportunity to build a statistical forecasting model and to use the output from this model in a simple revenue management decision. This section describes how the data were generated, potential solutions to the problem, and provides some guidance on how the case can be discussed in class.
