Most of the busiest airports airports face severe congestion and flight delays. Optimal allocating airport slots is one of the most effective ways in airport demand management. This paper systematically reviews the progress of research in airport slots allocation, as well as the main techniques in setting airport declared capacity and allocating slots. The major challenging issues of stochastic optimization were identified in such areas as the determination of airport declared capacity, the slot allocation in an airport, in an airport network and in the multi-airport system, and the technical complexity. Main research directions in slot allocation are further discussed and suggested.
