Global Air Lines has contracted with a tour group to transport a minimum of 1,600 first-class passengers and 4,800 economy-class passengers from New York to London during a 6-month time period. Global Air has two types of airplanes, the Orville 606 and the Wilbur W-1112. The Orville 606 carries 20 first-class passengers and 80 economy-class passengers and costs $12,000 to operate. The Wilbur W-1112 carries 80 first-class passengers and 120 economy-class passengers and costs $18,000 to operate. During the time period involved, Global Air can schedule no more than 52 flights on Orville 606s and no more than 30 flights on Wilbur W-1112s. How should Global Air Lines schedule its flights to minimize its costs? What operating costs would this schedule entail?
