  • 將近24年前,全世界大部份的航空公司成功的導入雙發動機展延航程(ETOPS)使用於商業性的飛機當中,即使是雙發動飛機在全球的ETOPS的航路上被廣泛的使用,特別是在北大西洋的交通市場當中具有重大的支配能力。近年來,某些位於美國與亞洲的航空業者,也開始表現出對於使用雙發動飛機於北太平洋市場的高度興趣,許多的航空業者也開始計劃導入波音777機型。藉由國與國之間的航空服務業的協定、開放天空的政策與雙發動機飛機的經濟效益將可增加北美與亞洲之間點對點的航線。
    基於ETOPS操作的效率,本文針對航空公司操作於北太平洋當中,使用不同的機型及飛航計劃等航務規劃,將會導致到不同的載重與成本,因此將可決定節省燃油與飛行成本的成效。本研究以長榮航空公司的B777-300ER與B747-400 執行北太平洋航線為例,做詳細的印證與討論所提的觀點。

    For nearly 24 years, operators around the world have successfully conducted extended-range twin-engine operations (ETOPS) with commercial airplanes.
    Even though twinjets are used globally on ETOPS routes, they dominate traffic in the North Atlantic market in particular. Recently, some U.S. and Asian operators have shown increased interest in using twinjets in the North Pacific market, where several operators plan to introduce the 777. Changes in air service agreements between nations, open-skies policies, and the availability of
    economically efficient twinjets may open additional point-to-point operations between cities in North America and Asia.
    Base on the ETOPS efficient, this thesis tries to aim at the airlines operation in the North Pacific, different aircraft models and overall flight plan to result in
    different payload and cost. Therefore decisions can be made on the effort of fuel saving and flight operation cost. This thesis adopts EVA B777-300ER and B747-400 in NOPAC flights to verify and discuss the proposed view points.
