Chiefs Face Travel Delays Due to Ice Storm Before Broncos Game

Kansas City’s flight to Denver was delayed for over four hours as icy conditions shut down airport operations, impacting travel plans ahead of a key game for the Broncos' playoff hopes.

The Kansas City Chiefs' flight was delayed for more than four hours on Saturday due to icy conditions at Kansas City International Airport.
The airport temporarily halted all flight operations due to rapid ice accumulation, with broken de-icing equipment adding to the delays.
The Chiefs attempted to reschedule their flight earlier in the day but were unable to due to mechanical issues with their chartered plane.
Kansas City has already secured the AFC's No. 1 seed and plans to rest key players, including Patrick Mahomes, in Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos.
The game holds significant playoff implications for Denver, which needs a win to secure the final AFC playoff spot or help from other teams' losses.
