Is Taylor Swift going to the Super Bowl? Eras Tour in Tokyo precedes Travis Kelce in Las Vegas

One of the biggest NFL storylines this season is Taylor Swift, who has appeared at numerous Kansas City Chiefs games this season due to her public relationship with All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce.

And with Super Bowl 58 around the corner, one question remains: Will the 13-time Grammy Award winner appear at the Chiefs' game against the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas?

Swift, one of the most famous entertainers in the world, played the last of four "Eras Tour" shows in Tokyo on Saturday, the day before the Super Bowl. That has sparked fans' questioning whether she can make it to Allegiant Stadium in time to cheer on Kelce.

Swift has made headlines all season as she has introduced her fanbase to the NFL, bringing record numbers to the league. She might not get the most rest, but it seems doable for Swift to make it back to the Super Bowl in time from Japan.

Here's what you need to know about the status of Swift's availability to make the Super Bowl:

Is Taylor Swift going to the Super Bowl?

While it has yet to be confirmed whether Swift will be at the Super Bowl, it seems unlikely she would miss the biggest game of the season. Swift has been to 12 Chiefs games this season, including each of Kansas City's playoff games.

Swift's concert in Tokyo — which is 17 hours ahead of Las Vegas — is set for 6 p.m. local time Saturday, with her concerts typically lasting more than 3 hours, 15 minutes. According to NPR, Swift's show at the Tokyo Dome is located roughly 30 minutes from Haneda and an hour from Narita, Tokyo's main two airports.

Kevin O'Leary, the president and CEO of Jet Advisors, told NPR that Swift could be in the air around 11:30 p.m. in Japan, or 6:30 a.m. Las Vegas time, after meeting some "logistics and clearances" before liftoff.

According to Business Insider, Swift owns two jets — a Dassault Falcon 7x and Dassault Falcon 900 — which helps her time crunch. O'Leary told NPR it's likely she takes the Dassault Falcon 7x, which could reach Las Vegas in what he predicts to be 10 to 12 hours. That would put her in Las Vegas at around 4:30-6:30 p.m. local time on Saturday, the day before the Super Bowl.

The Japanese Embassy on Friday also said Swift could "comfortably arrive in Las Vegas before the Super Bowl begins."
