Wimbledon is a district and town of Southwest London, England, 7.0 miles (11.3 km) southwest of the centre of London at Charing Cross. (Wikipedia so it must be true)
I don’t know if there have been any clues as to what part of the U.S. the Peanuts gang inhabit, but if it’s west of Kansas City, they can have a stopover there on the way to England. And if they’re east of Kansas City, they can still have that stopover, on the much longer way to England. Additional stopovers in Tokyo, New Delhi, and Berlin, if nowhere else.
I had to change buses in Kansas City on a trip many years ago. Got off at the Greyhound station in Kansas City Missouri, and walked from there to the Trailways station in Kansas City Kansas, toting a suitcase. I don’t know if the Kansas one has an airport too.
Not a fascinating story, I know, it’s just that there are two Kansas Cities. At least.

Keep walking to NYC and take a direct flight to England.

There is no 12th Street & Vine, if that’s your intention.

Snoopy needs a geography lesson.

And now we resume the Snoopy Wimbledon arc. And what is a layover?

Don’t worry, Snoopy. American Airlines will route your luggage that way.

There’s the Kansas City Men’s Open NRT, but that’s not time December, so Snoopy’ll have time to practice.

It depends upon from where Snoopy is coming for a layover in Kansas City.

Kansas, England, either way, you’re not going.

Maybe Kansas City is where the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm is.

That could happen. I once flew from Boston to Germany with a stopover in Chicago.

Not a problem Snoopy, go to Kansas City and then on to Wimbledon. It’s only 4354 miles further.

Wimbledon is an amazingly short commuter train ride from London—-downtown looks like an American suburb.
Even if no matches are going on,the Tennis MUSEUM on the grounds is worth a visit.

A great strip with a reference to “Upstair, Downstairs” is coming soon. (Think of it as the Seventies version of “Downton Abbey.”)

Going to Kansas City. Kansas City, here I come. They’ve got some crazy little women there, and I’m going to get me one…

Kansas City is a great final destination – the baggage claims are between the gates.

If you find yourself in Wimbledon, North Dakota, you should have made that turn at Albuquerque.
