Additionally, United Airlines will operate a flight numbered UA 2287, which combines Swift's hit song "22" and Travis Kelce's jersey number 87.

Super Bowl LVIII Hotels

Now that you have booked your flights to Las Vegas for Super Bowl LVIII, your next task will be to find a hotel. This might be a challenging task because hotels will be limited availability due to the large number of fans booking their accommodations near The Strip and as close to Allegiant Stadium as possible.

As per KVVU-TV in Las Vegas, the hotels near Allegiant Stadium, like Fairfield Inn, Courtyard by Marriott, and Residence by Marriott, are fully booked for February 9-12.

Staybridge Suites is one of the only hotels near the venue with available rooms, which are listed for an average of $696 per night.

The Strip is entirely booked up, with Fontainebleau, the newest resort hotel, having just a few rooms available for $1,377 per night.

Hotels outside the city are more readily available, with prices ranging from $651 to $202 based on the distance from the city.
