The Kansas City Chiefs faced significant travel disruptions as their flight to Denver was delayed for nearly four hours due to severe winter weather conditions, including icy runways and blizzard warnings. Initially stranded on the tarmac at Kansas City International Airport (KCI), the team was unable to depart until the airport reopened. Amid the chaos, officials reported that icy conditions in the region have caused headaches for air travelers. Finally airborne, the Chiefs arrived in snowy Denver just in time for their Week 18 matchup against the Broncos, despite the earlier turmoil impacting their travel plans.
