What is the purpose to fly thousands of km in a circle?

A Round Trip Flight does not go in a circle, what it does is return to the same Airport it departed from using the same Flight Number and will go in this case Via (V): Milan (Italy)

I have just found out that this Flight is not a round trip and is due to return using to KIV on 9U894, i will fix this error in the Database.
