Hanna’s wish was perfectly fulfilled! Early Friday morning, we departed from Ferihegy to Berlin, where a young man from the airline helped us with check-in and baggage drop-off. Hanna and the Magic Lamp were specially greeted on board by the Wizz Air crew, and at the end of the flight, we were even invited into the cockpit. Hanna received a small airplane and a cute teddy bear as gifts!

The real joy awaited her on Sunday – the tennis matches for the final day were brilliantly arranged: Team Europe faced off against the World Team, and it turned out that we could watch 4 matches – more than 10 hours of live tennis at the Uber Arena. Hanna handled and endured the excitement incredibly well.
And in the middle of the day, the miracle we had hoped for but couldn’t be sure of happened: Hanna met Carlos Alcaraz!!
We waited for him on the locker room level of the stadium, Carlos came out to us in the hallway and had a very nice conversation with Hanna: he gave an autograph and we could take photos. Hanna had prepared three questions for the meeting, and from the answers, we learned that the young tennis ace likes to try other sports, such as golfing, and also enjoys playing video games. However, Hanna’s third question/request was surprising: “Could you possibly give me one of your tennis rackets?” she asked. Alcaraz turned around without a word, disappeared, but a few seconds later, he handed over his racket!

It was an uplifting feeling to see Hanna’s joy!
We wish this very kind, smiling, open, and helpful little girl to stay this cheerful and to play as much tennis as possible – of course, she won’t practice with this racket – it will be framed on her room’s wall.

We are also grateful to Wizz Air Hungary Ltd., the management of the JW Marriott Hotel Berlin, the management of the Budapest Marriott Hotel, Mr. Arne Klehn, and his colleagues for their assistance in fulfilling Hanna’s wish.
