Travis and his teammates will take on the Miami Dolphins in Frankfurt on November 5, and Travis' mother seems to be making the long journey in good time, possibly even arriving before her son.
Regretfully for Travis, his supposed new girlfriend Taylor Swift, will not be present because she is getting ready for her Eras Tour's South American leg, as reported by Daily Mail.
Netizens crack jokes over Donna Kelce's heroic applause
Internet users cracked jokes after the video of Donna Kelce receiving applause while flying appeared online.
One online user took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, "Travis dropped the ball here. For as much as the NFL has exploited his fam & love life, Mama Kelce should be flying on a private plane w/ Roger Goddell! Wield your power, bruh!!!!"
A second one quipped, "Taylor is texting Travis right now saying “you know your mom can use my jet anytime right?”
"You are so lucky! I had to make my own mini Mama Kelce for Halloween," snarked a third X user.
Another one added, "I'd probably wanna get away to Germany too... hopefully she won't have to deal with the craziness of this whole Swift/Kelce dating thing. Give the poor lady a break, lol"
"But can you ask her for her kids’ Halloween pics for this year?" jokingly questioned one X user.
One more chimed in, "Say hi to Mama Kelce!! She is such a good sport with everyone excited to see her & she just wants to get to the seat."

Donna Kelce wears a lucky bracelet to every game
On October 12, in Kansas City, Missouri, Donna was spotted wearing friendship bracelets during the Kansas City Chiefs vs Denver Broncos game, which was attended by Swift as well.
There was speculation that the bracelets were a special gift from the pop music icon due to this seemingly unassuming design decision.
In an interview with PEOPLE Magazine, the mother revealed that she intended to wear a unique piece of jewelry that she had on throughout the season.
"I wear jewelry from my mother," Donna declared. "She passed this year. She always wore it for games, so I'm wearing it now. I wore it all season."
Grandma Murr left behind a Pandora bracelet that is embellished with charms representing Travis and Jason's respective teams.
Donna added, "One is for the Eagles and one for the Chiefs; one red and one green."
