Using multiple a/c on a single route

Hi All

Forgive me if repeating a common question.

Is there a straightforward to use multiple aircraft (of the same type of course) to cover a single route?

i.e Route AA001/2 SFO-JFK Daily
Aircraft A flys 1-3-5-7
Aircraft B flys -2-4-6-

etc..

I have managed to fudge it using separate routes for each aircraft but figured there must be an easier/less convoluted way.

I suppose I'm asking is it possible to managed aircraft schedules on a daily basis as well as weekly?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Neil

Yeah, it's a pain in the A** to have to schedule a different plane every day, but that's how you manage to get the best utilization out of your aircraft. Look up "7 day rotational scheduling"
