The NFL star spent just 10 minutes disembarking the jet and getting through customs – though he did not hide under an umbrella despite the wet weather conditions.
Meanwhile, Swift, 33, had spent over an hour on the tarmac when she arrived on Wednesday, hiding her face from screaming fans at the private terminal.
Fans had been hoping for a glimpse of the tight end and Bad Blood hitmaker together, or for him to enjoy her performance from a VIP tent.

But lo and behold, the tight end made the trip to see his girlfriend, proving that distance is no obstacle for the hottest new couple in Hollywood.
After she attended four of Kelce’s games this season, the NFL star is returning the favor during his downtime – with his team not scheduled to play again until November 20.
Many fans have been hoping to catch a glimpse of the athlete at the show during the two-week break in his schedule.
Swift has been showing her support for her new beau by attending several games at the Arrowhead Stadium, and hosted a watch party for the WAGs at her New York apartment as the Chiefs took on the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
Despite his absence on Thursday, Swift appeared in good spirits during the opening show of her three-day gig in Argentina.

Travis teased his possible bye week plans on his ‘New Heights’ podcast with brother Jason Kelce this week.
Travis was asked if he was looking forward to any upcoming plans.
‘No, not really,’ he said.
However, he soon added, ‘I might just say f*** it and just go somewhere nice, I don’t know.
‘My skin’s getting real pale, so I gotta go somewhere sunny… closer to the equator.’
Jason then asked if his brother would be travelling ‘south of the equator,’ – where Argentina is, of course – which elicited a big laugh from Travis.

The tight end did not comment any further on his brother’s quip.
At a different point in the episode, Kelce said he didn’t like to make bye week plans in advance.
‘You just don’t know how healthy you’re gonna be or how you’re gonna feel whether you’re winning or losing,’ he said.
‘I’m not trying to go and f****** be out and about if we’re out here losing.
Kelce and the Chiefs beat the Dolphins 21-14 in Frankfurt, which improved the team to a 7-2 record heading into its Week 10 bye.
Swift was not in Germany to watch her beau, but it appears she was keeping tabs on the tight end nonetheless.
