Systems and methods for allocating flights to aircraft stands are provided. In one example aspect, a system includes one or more computing devices. The computing devices are configured to generate a stand recovery plan that reallocates flights to available aircraft stands following a flight schedule disruption. Flights associated with an aircraft stand conflict can be reallocated to aircraft stands that are available within a determined time slot, by ensuring that the available aircraft stands meet one or more scheduling constraints or criteria, and based at least in part on a determined weighted total walk time. The weighted total walk time takes into account the estimated walk time between aircraft stands and/or their associated gates as well as the connecting time between flights. Once aircraft stands are reallocated to flights associated with the identified aircraft stand conflict(s), a stand recovery plan can be generated in real time.
