Wheeler Downtown Airport. The John Jordan “Buck” O’Neil Memorial Bridge has been a vital pathway in and out of downtown Kansas City, Mo., since 1956, when it opened as the Broadway Bridge.
Captain Gregg Bourdon said he was stunned hearing the news of a mid-air crash near Washington, D.C. earlier this week.
For fans willing to stay closer to the airport and in Kansas City’s downtown – both about a 20-minute drive from the stadium, prices start at about $120 per night, according to AAA.
