Title
A new heuristic branching scheme for the crew pairing problem with base constraints.
Abstract
•We study the crew pairing problem with base constraints.•The new branching heuristic revises poor branching decisions without backtracking.•Four branch-and-price heuristics are compared.•The one with the new branching outperforms the others for constrained scenarios.
