<p>From the analysis of different time stages of flight planning optimization, flight planning optimization can be divided into three aspects: static flight planning optimization, flight planning dynamic feedback optimization based on flight delay prediction, and flight planning dynamic adjustment based on airport collaborative decision -making (A-CDM). Then, it analyzes the static scheduling and optimization of flight plans from the preparation links of flight schedules, aircraft type assignments, and flight frequencies; then uses the optimization method of delay spread prediction and data mining prediction to analyze the correlation of flight plan dynamic feedback optimization based on flight delay prediction the study. Finally, according to the complexity analysis of flight plan optimization, the development trend and future research directions of flight plan optimization are given.</p>
