The flight back to Germany was long and exhausting. They boarded a certain Airbus A270 for the 14-hour journey to Dubai, where they had a brief two-hour layover. The stop provided a chance to stretch their legs and grab snacks. Luca and Ansel wandered through the airport shops, absorbing the city's vibrant nighttime ambiance. The comfort and allure of Dubai made Luca ponder if it might be the ideal future home for his mother and sister.
The next leg to Frankfurt took around six hours, during which Luca managed to sleep twice. He ate dinner onboard, sticking to his diet, while engaging in lighthearted banter with the Trampos Racing staff. Their camaraderie was infectious, and Luca couldn't shake the thought that he might become too attached to them by the end of the season.
