An aircraft towing robot, comprising an omnidirectional mobile chassis formed by a heavy-load frame body (1) and a Mecanum wheel (2) assembly distributed around the heavy-load frame body (1). An aircraft support plate (9), which can be lifted and lowered by a lifting assembly, is mounted on each of the front and rear ends of the upper portion of the heavy-load frame body (1). A laser sensor (10) for detecting the distance between the aircraft support plate (9) and an aircraft connection point is disposed on an outer side of a support recess on each aircraft support plate (9). A locking connection assembly for locking an aircraft is provided on both sides of the middle of the upper portion of the heavy-load frame body (1). PSD sensors (15), which correspond one-to-one to the positions of laser transmitters at the bottom portion of the aircraft, are distributed on the upper portion of the heavy-load frame body (1). A navigation code reader (14) for collecting and parsing a two-dimensional code at a node positio
