Online sleuths say Taylor Swift arrived at LAX on her way from Tokyo to the Super Bowl

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Will she make it in time? Intrepid flight trackers online think so.

On social media, Taylor Swift fans and aviation journalists believe Swift's private jet marked “The Football Era.” It arrived just after 3:30pm local time from Tokyo's Haneda Airport to Los Angeles' LAX Airport.

Her transportation plans to Las Vegas, where her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce, will play in Sunday's Super Bowl, have not yet been revealed.

Representatives for Swift, the world's only global private airline, and VistaJet did not immediately respond to AP's request for comment.

With Swift's last song ringing in the ears of thousands of fans at the Tokyo Dome on Saturday night, the singer rushed to a private jet at Haneda Airport to begin an intensely researched trip to see Kells.

“We're all going to go on a great adventure,” Swift told the crowd earlier. She talks about music, but it could also describe her race against time to cross nine time zones and the International Date Line.

With a final bow at the end of her sold-out show, wearing a blue-lined dress, the crowd screaming, strobe lights pulsing, confetti falling, Swift disappearing under the stage, her journey to the other side of the world began.

Kelce's anticipated trip to watch the Kansas City Chiefs play the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas has fueled speculation for weeks.

“I hope she can come back in time. It's very romantic,” said office worker Hitomi Takahashi, 29, who was taking photos outside the Tokyo Dome with her friend in matching Taylor Swift sweatshirts.

About an hour after the concert, AP journalists were near Haneda's private jet area when minivans pulled up and someone walked into the gate area, four to five people carrying large black umbrellas blocking the person's view.

There was ample evidence at the concert of the unique cultural phenomenon of the Swift-Kells relationship, the connection to professional football and Swift's enormous star power. In addition to the array of apparel celebrating Swift, there were also Kells jerseys and hats and other head gear.

Some spent thousands of dollars to attend the pop superstar's concerts this week.

“Romeo, take me where we can be alone,” Swift sang.

She won't find a sold-out crowd in Las Vegas on Sunday, not to mention millions around the world, watching her.

To call the global study of Swift's travels intense would be an understatement.

Fans followed his jet. Global-warming Carbon emissions His globetrotting has been criticized. Officials have weighed the possibility of stopping his jet at Las Vegas airports.

Even Japanese diplomats have gotten into the act. The Japanese embassy in Washington posted on social media that she could make it in time for the Super Bowl, including three Swift song titles — “Speak Now,” “Fearless” and “Red.”

“If he leaves Tokyo the evening after his concert, he should conveniently arrive in Las Vegas before the start of the Super Bowl,” it said.

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

“Many other people fly for business and she's here for work. She faces an attack because she's famous and stands out,” Takahashi said.

Swift is touring the world this week.

Before coming to Asia, he attended the Grammy ceremony in Los Angeles, winning his 14th Grammy and fourth album of the year award for “Midnights”. Watched the show almost 17 million people. He also made a surprising announcement The next album is ready Should drop in April.

“This week has really been a great mess,” he said Published on Wednesday On Instagram.
