Taylor Swift’s dad, Scott Swift, was on a recent Southwest Airlines flight out of New Orleans. His seatmate was a travel agent, and she dishes on how talkative he was while sitting beside him in the bulkhead middle – all about his pride in his daughter, his family’s life, and Taylor’s relationship with Travis Kelce.
The seatmate took to TikTok showing herself walking onto the flight and recognizing Mr. Swift. She naturally took the seat beside him. And, she says, he began chatting her up about his daughter and her accomplishments.
He was just raving about how proud he was of her, talking about his busy lifestyle supporting her at concerts and at all the Chiefs games.

The father of the “Eras Tour” sensation showed the passengers in his row video clips from his daughter’s New Orleans concert, talking about his favorite moments onstage. “He kept saying, ‘Look how she does this,’ pointing out parts he loved. It was the cutest thing in the world.” Flight attendants came over to “fangirl” over the proud dad.
Scott says Kelce is her favorite boyfriend Taylor has had over the past 12 years, and that he’s had “the biggest impact.” He knew Jason Kelce’s father-in-law, Ed McDevitt, before Taylor began dating Jason’s brother Travis. He says the Kelce family as “phenomenal” and that Travis’s character and values are fantastic and that he “loves them together.”
Yet he hasn’t always loved the boyfriends – without mentioning names, he implied that Travis stands out in ways her past paramours did not, noting the positive influence Travis has had on his daughter’s life.

In perhaps a bit of fatherly exaggeration, he compares the “Eras Tour” phenomenon to Woodstock, expressing that its significance might well parallel the cultural icon of his own generation which took place on a dairy farm during a pandemic. He marveled at the dedication of her fans, sharing that he sees the tour as a “big thing” with a historical impact.
The two passengers wrapped up their conversation, taking a photo together that “Papa Swift” asked remain private to avoid exposing his whereabouts. She said it was “like talking to my dad.”
