Devotees of Taylor Swift, who has recently developed a keen interest in NFL games during the Eras Tour, intrigued by her romantic involvement with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, are optimistic about her potential presence at the Super Bowl (Taylor’s Version). However, a possible obstacle might hinder her from attending the NFL’s grand event.
With just over a week left, the anticipation builds for the clash between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII at the 60,000-seat Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Sunday, Feb. 11. Swift is all set for the event. However, in the days leading up to the spectacle, the pop star will find herself in Japan, as her Eras Tour resumes with four shows at the Tokyo Dome in the country’s capital.

Swifties have meticulously crunched the numbers: The final of the four planned Tokyo shows falls on Feb. 10. Factoring in time zone disparities, should she take a midnight flight, it would be 7 a.m. Saturday in Las Vegas. If all goes smoothly without delays, Swift could potentially embark on the 11- or 12-hour journey to Las Vegas, arriving the day before the game. This comes after hosting four demanding shows and traversing nine time zones.
Nevertheless, she should already secure a blank space for her plane, as facilities for parking private aircraft at airports in and around Las Vegas have been fully allocated, according to statements from airport and Federal Aviation Administration officials on Thursday.
“Oh, they’re full,” remarked Rick Breitenfeldt, spokesperson for the FAA.
Swift intends to be in Las Vegas for the NFL’s championship game, as per information obtained by Fox News Digital. The “1989” star is eager to turn her fans’ wildest dreams into reality; it’s just a matter of sorting out the logistics.
The four airports near Las Vegas collectively offer approximately 475 parking spaces, as confirmed by Heidi Hayes, spokesperson for the Clark County Department of Aviation.
Las Vegas-area airports frequently reach their capacity for private planes during major sporting events, as was the case during the inaugural Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix auto race in November, as noted by Heidi Hayes.

Anticipated air traffic is notably high at Harry Reid International, one of the busiest passenger airports in the U.S. According to the Las Vegas airport’s report on Wednesday, it set a new record by accommodating 57.6 million passengers in 2023. This averages to nearly 160,000 people per day.
General aviation airports in suburban North Las Vegas and Henderson, including Boulder City Municipal Airport, situated about 24 miles east of Las Vegas, are also fully booked.
Parking availability may be limited, given that the Saudi-funded LIV Golf League is scheduled to be in Las Vegas for a tournament on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at the Las Vegas Country Club, just preceding the Super Bowl.
According to league spokesman Brian McCarthy, the NFL does not manage aircraft reservations. However, he mentioned to the Associated Press that the NFL collaborates with the FAA, National Business Aviation Association, host city airport authorities, and commercial private aircraft service companies to coordinate during Super Bowl events.
Super Bowl LVIII is scheduled to commence at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 11.
