This work introduces a limited-horizon look-ahead enhancement to demand-responsive cargo airline scheduling. By extending greedy routing with a discounted one-step foresight, the method reduces myopic decisions, improves fleet utilization, and lowers empty repositioning flights. The approach is computationally efficient and applicable to other time-critical logistics and transportation networks.
