Lin, Yu (author), Li, L. (author), Ren, Pan (author), Wang, Yanjun (author), Szeto, W. Y. (author)En-route congestion causes delays in air traffic networks and will become more prominent as air traffic demand will continue to increase yet airspace volume cannot grow. However, most existing studies on flight delay modeling do not consider en-route congestion explicitly. In this study, we propose a new flight delay model, Multi-layer Air...journal article 2021
