The Houston Astros have the best plane ride home from Los Angeles after winning the World Series. And they’re traveling with an extra companion.

After beating the Dodgers in seven games, the Astros were awarded the Commissioner’s Trophy, which they brought on the plane home. They gave the trophy its own row, complete with a pillow for cushioning and blanket for comfort:
