contents Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) traffic regulations are being increasingly used as rising demand meets persistent workforce shortages. This operational strain has amplified a critical phenomenon that we call \emph{regulation cascading}: the compounding, non-linear interactions that occur when multiple regulations influence one another in unpredictable ways. As the number and complexity of regulations grow, cascading effects become more pronounced, undermining the network operator's ability to protect sectors reliably. To address this challenge, we introduce RegulationZero, a sequential planning framework that natively operates in the regulation space, optimizing over ordered sequences of flow-level regulations that remain fully compatible with existing slot-allocation systems such as CASA and RBS++. At its core, the method employs a hierarchical Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) that first samples congestion hotspots and then selects candidate regulations synthesized by a local proposal engine. Each proposal is evaluated by a fast First-Planned-First-Served (FPFS) allocator to estimate its reward, with these feedbacks guiding the subsequent MCTS exploration.
