Abstract：To keep the seat inventory control closer to actual passenger reservation demand , and effectively improve airline revenue , a dynamic optimization model of seat inventory control is established based on the characteristics of the hub and spoke route network , from the perspective of practical operation , considering demand uncertainty and dynamics at the same time .The random arrival passenger number of different res-ervation phases is obtained by simulation , the number of seats to protect each flight segment is obtained by using genetic algorithm , and the nested grade is obtained according to the fare value .The running results show that this method can increase the total revenue by 2 .35%compared with the method using genetic al-gorithm only .It has certain reference significance .
