Aircraft landing is a critical operation for both terminal airspaces and airports. This study presents a multi-objective optimization model for this problem and aims to minimize the total flight time and emission value. A point merge system and vector maneuver techniques are implemented in aircraft to regulate air traffic. The model uses the augmented è-constraint method to reveal objective function relationships. To test the performance of the mathematical model, several realistic scenarios are generated and solved by GAMS/CPLEX solver. The algorithm can obtain Pareto-optimal solutions for each air traffic situation. In addition, noticeable reductions were observed in most of the Pareto-optimal solutions in emission values. The results showed that total emissions value and flight time were reduced up to 4.69% and 0.92%, respectively, compared with the first-come-first-served approach.
