Yesterday, the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Baltimore Ravens to earn a spot in the 2024 Super Bowl in Las Vegas, Nevada. Of course, the win also meant that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce had some very major PDA on the field as the confetti fluttered down and Swifties everywhere immediately wondered whether or not the victory meant the superstar singer would be making an appearance with her beau at the big game. While Swift hasn't confirmed that she'll be up in the bleachers to cheer on her boyfriend, fans have surmised that it's not entirely impossible for her to make it, even though she's booked and busy with the next leg of her Eras Tour.
The next stops in Swift's tour are in Tokyo, Japan. Leading up to Super Bowl LVIII, her very last show in the Japanese capital falls on Feb. 10. The Super Bowl is on Feb. 11, but just because she'll be across the ocean doesn't mean she'll be MIA.
Noted investigative journalist Drew Barrymore did the math and came to the conclusion that Swift can, indeed, sing her greatest hits and still make it to Sin City.
"If she left Tokyo at midnight ... the flight time is 11 hours and 35 minutes approximately from Tokyo to Vegas, so she might arrive at 10:30 p.m., but on February 10, leaving her a full night’s sleep," Barrymore said during an episode of The Drew Barrymore Show in November 2023. Add the fact that Swift has access to a private jet, just about anything is possible.
The Athletic even outlined every route Swift could take.
"The 17-hour time difference works in her favor and means Swift could get to Las Vegas with plenty of time to spare," the outlet noted.
It continued, saying that doors open at 4 p.m. local time for her Tokyo concerts. With a show that lasts about three-and-a-half hours, that means the final bow takes place at 9:30 p.m. Tokyo time. Haneda Airport is just 30 minutes away, so she could be up in the air as soon as 10:30 p.m. accounting for check-ins and other possible delays.
