It means sequencing the airline's or aviation businesses aircraft fleet to comport with the scheduled flights. On occasion, one aircraft may go down for maintenance, therefore, another needs to found to fill its place. Or, weather delays on one end cause the schedule to get mixed up on the other (the inbound airplane was expected to arrive and fly an outbound leg). Aircraft dispatchers have to sort out this mess and assign the appropriate aircraft with minimal disruption in the airline's schedule.
