Turns out you don't have to leave Kansas City to catch a World Cup match this year, but if you're the type who'd rather be catching sun instead, MCI's nonstop map just got a lot more interesting. Here's where Kansas City travelers are actually flying in 2026, straight from a local travel advisor who booked the routes herself.
