The route evaluation is an important basis for airlines to make route decisions. In order to solve the fuzzy multiple attribute route decision problem, route attribute weight was completely unknown, and the route evaluation fuzzy language information was given, the fuzzy language and preference information were converted into trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. A programming model was constructed by minimizing the total deviation between trapezoidal fuzzy numbers to determining the weight of each attribute in the route decision, By weighting the average of the route attribute value and the weights value, compared the expected value of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation for each route, and ranking alternatives by using the expected value operator of fuzzy variable. Finally, a numerical example was used to illustrate the proposed method. The results show that the method can be used by air-lines to solve multiple attribute route decision problems with unknown weights, and the method is scientific and effective.
