This work proposes a negotiation model, built upon the sequential bargaining model, for strategic planning among high-altitude operations. The definition of cost/utility, the setup of time-dependent required cost, and the detailed negotiation structure and process are developed. The sensitivities of negotiation strategies or preferences, response time, and limited maneuverability are investigated to understand the behavior of the proposed negotiation model. Results show that the proposed model can serve the cooperative operation concept well: first, this model ensures an agreement can be reached within a predefined time window; second, operators can accurately express their priorities without exposing their private business information; third, the model encourages short response times and helps the negotiation process converge; finally, the limited and unbalanced maneuverability was found less of a concern for a fair negotiation due to the long lead time available for strategic planning.
