NFL International games: Five things to know including travel, tickets
Whether you're not missing your team's international game, or you're planning an international trip and just working in an NFL game, here are some travel tips that might help you out:
International NFL game schedule:
When to buy International NFL game tickets
International NFL game tickets have been dropping at their own rate, but they've pretty much all been released on one site or another at this point.
NFL INTERNATIONAL TICKETS: Here's how to buy NFL tickets in Brazil, Germany, Spain, U.K.
When to buy flights?
The International NFL game schedule has been out longer than the tickets to those individual games, so I wouldn't judge you if you bought your flights first. The good news is, no matter where you're heading, whether it's London to see Big Ben after the Rams vs. Jaguars game, or you plan to wrap a Christ the Redeemer in Rio visit into a Brazil trip to see the Chiefs vs. Chargers, you can get a great deal on flights on Kayak.
Travel tip #1 for 2025: While you need a Real ID to travel within the U.S., you need a passport to travel internationally and those could take months to get so plan in advance!
Travel tip #2 for 2025: Some airlines are considering changes to their carry-on bag sizes by the end of 2025, so be sure to check the size guidelines for whatever airline you're flying.

Where to stay during your NFL trip?
You always have options when you travel, one of them being where you stay. This will depend on which country you're heading to.
If you're looking for something a little more personal, or if you're traveling in a group, AirBnB has great options in cities around the world. Plus, you might find a unique stay like this Green Bay Packers dreamhouse..
Travel tip #3: Always do a deep Google or TikTok-dive into where you're going for customs and normal practices. For example, Japan's currency is coin-based so a coin purse is highly recommended.
Stock up on your favorite jersey ahead of the game
Whether you're going for classic fan favorites like Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, or looking to sport some of the NFL's newest fan gear for players like Travis Hunter, Fanatics has you covered. My personal favorite is the apparel line WEAR by longtime sports reporter Erin Andrews. It combines fashion and sports in the best way, but you can never go wrong with a jersey.
