An approach (a generalization of the classical simplex algorithm) is proposed to solve hesitant fuzzy linear programming problems (HFLPPs). In this paper, we pointed out that much computational effort is required to solve HFLPPs by the existing approach. Moreover, to reduce the computational efforts, an alternative approach is proposed to solve HFLPPs. Furthermore, some other advantages of the proposed alternative approach (PrAlApp) over the existing approach are discussed. Finally, an existing HFLPP is solved by the PrAlApp.
