Aircraft trajectory is one of the most fundamental objects in air traffic management. Its optimization is essential to ensure efficient and sustainable aviation. This survey proposes to study all the phases of a flight, from its prediction several days before day of flight to the landing of the aircraft, including also the study of a possible emergency situation. Each phase of flight raises different issues and is subject to particular constraints. These guide the choice of potentially usable optimization methods. This study proposes, from the context, the issues, and existing studies, a methodology to identify the most appropriate solution algorithms for optimizing each phase of flight. This methodology is based on 5 evaluation criteria: optimality, computing time, adaptability, memory usage, and multi-trajectories. Finally, thanks to it, some methods are compared based on their consistency with solving problem associated to each phase of flight.
