Adele plans helicopter travel

Adele is arranging a license so she can be flown around in a helicopter.

The 23-year-old singer recently moved into a country home with her boyfriend Simon Konecki. The ten- bedroom property costs £15,000 a month to rent and is Grade II listed. It has two swimming pools as well as a tennis court and games room.

The house also includes a helipad and hanger for helicopters, which Adele has apparently decided to make use of.

"It will cut down her journey time by some distance and it also means she won't have to rely so heavily on cars," a source explained to a British newspaper.

"She's a busy woman and needs to get to places with minimal disruption."

It's thought Adele would like to use the aircraft to take her to and from shows and appearances so she can spend as much time as possible in her new home in West Sussex.

The star is not thought to be planning to get her own helicopter license at the moment.

The singer has a busy day ahead of her as she will be appearing at the Brit Awards in London tonight. She has been nominated for the Best British Female Solo Artist prize and for Best British Single for Someone Like You.

She recently scooped six Grammys so is hotly-tipped to do well.

"I have a soft spot for the Brits, but this year feels really special since last year it kick-started my album into what it's become," she explained recently. "What a beautiful way to celebrate."
