Chiefs fans deal with the price of the Super Bowl

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — There have been plenty of Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers fans making their way through Eisenhower National Airport ahead of the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.

Making the trip to Vegas has looked different for many different travelers when it comes to how much the trip has cost them.

“These are the most expensive flights I paid for, about $900, and we booked it last minute Wednesday night, and we’re ready to go. It’s the Super Bowl in Las Vegas,” Chiefs fan Kurtis Klecan said.

One Wichita family already planned their trip to Vegas way in advance, but they aren’t going to cheer on the Kansas City Chiefs. Instead, they’re going to root for the 49ers.

“Well, actually, we planned this a year ago. We knew we were going to Vegas. We just didn’t know what teams were going to be there,” 49ers fan Teresa Vasquez said.

A Wichita couple is going to the Super Bowl in support of the Chiefs but bought their tickets back in September when prices weren’t quite so expensive.
