Next stop, Super Bowl! Taylor Swift rushes straight from Tokyo Eras Tour show to her private jet at Haneda Airport to begin 12-hour, 9,000-mile dash to Las Vegas to watch boyfriend Travis Kelce and the Chiefs

Taylor Swift appears to have begun her mad dash from Tokyo to Las Vegas, rushing off stage at her Eras Tour show and heading straight to her private jet at Haneda Airport.

The pop superstar is flying 12 hours and 9,000 miles in an attempt to watch her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his Kansas City Chiefs play in the Super Bowl on Sunday night.

And now the journey has begun, with the Associated Press initially reporting that Swift stepped off stage at the Tokyo Dome on Saturday night and was rushed straight to her private jet at Haneda Airport.

On popular flight-tracking website FlightRadar, thousands of fans then began tracking a private jet on the tarmac, which was listed as ‘VistaJet (The Football Era)’ – in an apparent nod to Swift’s new love for the sport.

Remarkably, there also appeared to be a second jet alongside it – named ‘The Backup Quarterback’ – should anything have gone wrong with the main plane.

 The flight, which Swift is believed to be on, is heading from Tokyo to Los Angeles initially, and she is due to land on the west coast shortly after 4pm in the afternoon, local time.

From there, she has just over 24 hours to complete the final, far shorter, leg of her journey – 300 miles across to Vegas, Nevada.

The time difference from Asia to the west coast of North America means that, although she performed on Saturday night in Tokyo, she will actually land earlier than that in LA.

All eyes have been on Swift to see whether she’d make the mad dash across the world to see her man, with more Eras Tour shows taking place in Melbourne, Australia from Friday.

Fans will be desperately trying to track the jet across the world, as she heads to her 13th Chiefs game of the season – coincidentally her lucky number.

On stage in Tokyo earlier in the night, Swift had told the crowd ‘we’re all gonna go on a great adventure’. While she was presumably referring to the show, it also applies to her next few days as she travels across the world and back again, all in the name of Kelce.

With a final bow at the end of her sold-out show, clad in in a blue sequined miniskirt, the crowd screaming, strobe lights pulsing, confetti falling, Swift disappeared beneath the stage – and her journey to the other side of the world began.

Her expected trip to see Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs play the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas on Sunday, U.S. time, has fired imaginations, and speculation, for weeks.

‘I hope she can return in time. It’s so romantic,’ office worker Hitomi Takahashi, 29, told the AP before the Tokyo Show on Saturday.

At the concert, there was plenty of evidence of the unique cultural phenomenon that is the Swift-Kelce relationship, a nexus of professional football and the huge star power of Swift.

In addition to people wearing sequined dresses celebrating Swift in the packed Tokyo Dome, there were Travis Kelce jerseys and hats and other gear celebrating the Chiefs.

Some in Tokyo spent thousands of dollars to attend the pop superstar’s concerts this week – although perhaps not quite as much as it’ll cost to get into the Super Bowl in Vegas tomorrow night.

Amid a crazy week, even Japanese diplomats have gotten in on the act and commented on Swift’s mad dash across the world.

The Japanese Embassy in Washington posted on social media that she could make the Super Bowl in time, including in their statement three Swift song titles – ‘Speak Now’, ‘Fearless’ and ‘Red.’

‘If she departs Tokyo in the evening after her concert, she should comfortably arrive in Las Vegas before the Super Bowl begins,’ it said.

Takahashi, the fan at the Tokyo Dome, was aware of the criticism Swift has faced about her private jets, but said the singer was being singled out unfairly.

‘Many other people are flying on business, and she is here for her work. She faces a bashing because she is famous and stands out,’ Takahashi said to AP.

Swift has been crisscrossing the globe this week already.

Before coming to Asia, she attended the Grammys in Los Angeles, winning her 14th Grammy and a record-breaking fourth Album of the Year award for ‘Midnights.’ The show was watched by nearly 17 million people. She also made a surprise announcement that her next album is ready to drop in April.

Then the four concerts in Tokyo, and now apparently a rushed trip to try to make it to Las Vegas to watch Kelce, the tight end for the Chiefs, play in the Super Bowl. She has followed Kelce for much of the Chiefs’ season.

‘This week is truly the best kind of chaos,’ Swift posted Wednesday on Instagram.
