Apr 12, 2022 at 13:48 comment added RobPratt @xdy Yes, that can happen. See the Chvatal paper for an example.
Apr 12, 2022 at 8:30 comment added xd y @RobPratt I'm a little bit stuck right now. Do you mean there might be a feasible point of the LP that could not be mapped to a schedule? Maybe you could give me a quick hint.
Apr 11, 2022 at 13:11 comment added RobPratt @xdy The LP model provides only a relaxation of the problem, but here it was clear how to map the resulting solution to an explicit schedule.
Apr 11, 2022 at 5:56 comment added xd y Great model! I thought it is necessary to decide when and where to take and put passengers, which will make the model a much much more complex MILP model.

Aug 15, 2021 at 13:00 comment added tom It looks like the optimum solution to me, but given they arrive at different times I wonder if there is room for optimisation - got the +1 from me and I cannot see a better solution
Aug 15, 2021 at 1:29 comment added Eric I do have some other candidates in mind, which would take some effort to describe. What're the constraints you use in LP?
Aug 15, 2021 at 1:13 comment added RobPratt Yes, it can be shown optimal via linear programming. Does your comment mean that you had a different schedule in mind when you posed the question?
Aug 15, 2021 at 1:07 comment added Eric +1. That's a clever scheme. Do you have any reason to suspect whether it may or may not be a best scheme?
