ARN-EWR-ARN, which works well within 24 hours
ARN-HKG-ARN-ORD-ARN, which is a really risky 48 hour rotation
ARN-LAX-ARN, which takes 25 hours

Are they planning to squeeze LAX into another tight ARN-LAX-ARN-EWR-ARN 48 hour rotation, or are they planning to base five planes in ARN? If the latter, it would make sense to re-time the HKG and ORD flights.
You also have to add an 8h line check every 90h flying. The aircraft in ARN and OSL currently do a W rotation in ORD or EWR to get back to the CPH base for that...
