If
Taylor Swift
intends to fly from Tokyo, the site of her next concert, to
Las Vegas
to see her boyfriend
Travis Kelce
play in the
Super Bowl
, she better have a reserved space to park her plane.
Private jet parking spots in and around Las Vegas are reserved, airport and
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
officials said Thursday.
There is just over a week left until the NFL
title game
between the
Kansas City
Chiefs
and
the
San
Francisco
49ers
.
The four airports around Las Vegas have a total of about 475 parking spaces, said
Heidi Hayes
, spokeswoman for the Clark County Aviation Department.
“They're all busy,” said
FAA spokesman
Rick Breitenfeldt in his sixth Super Bowl.

It is not the first time that parking spaces
for private jets in the area have been sold out : it already happened in November, when the
Formula 1
Las Vegas Grand Prix was held for the first time
, Hayes added.
Clark County manages
Harry Reid International Airport
, one of the busiest passenger airports in the United States, as well as other airports in the suburbs of North Las Vegas and Henderson.
Hayes also checked Boulder City Municipal Airport, 24 miles (39 kilometers) east of the city.
Heavy air traffic
is forecast
.
Commercial airlines have added flights and the Las Vegas airport counted 57.6 million passengers in 2023, a record number equivalent to almost 160,000 passengers daily.

Swift's "Eras Tour" has four concerts scheduled in Tokyo, the last of them on February 10.
Given the time difference, if you leave at midnight, it will be 7:00 a.m. on Saturday in Las Vegas.
A spokesperson for Swift did not answer Thursday whether she plans to attend the NFL final, if she has made plans for the trip or if her pilots have somewhere to park the
Dassault Falcon 900
plane that seats at least
12 people
and can reach a speed of 950 km/h (590 mph).
If there are no delays, if Swift's flight to Las Vegas will take 11 or 12 hours, he will arrive in the city on the eve of the game after crossing nine time zones and the international date line.
