John Travolta wants to fly the Spice Girls around the globe for their forthcoming world tour.

The 'Pulp Fiction' star, who is a qualified pilot, is keen to jet the reunited girl group from venue to venue on their lavish private plane, nicknamed 'Spice Force One'.

John said: "It sounds like an amazing plane. I have been flying since 1974 so maybe I could help out. I was always desperate to be a pilot, every cent I had went on flying lessons."

The actor also reportedly wants to host the girls' wrap party at his Florida estate - which boasts its own runway - when the tour finishes in January.

Earlier this week, it was revealed the band - Victoria Beckham, Mel B, Emma Bunton, Mel C and Geri Halliwell - are leasing a Boeing 757 for the duration of their hotly-anticipated tour.

The outside of the jet will be adorned with official Spice Girls reunion artwork, while the interior will boast a crèche and a make-up parlour.

The 757 will transport the girls - all of whom are mothers apart from Mel C - their families, management, wardrobe, make-up artists and bodyguards from venue to venue.

A source said: "'Spice Force One' will be a flying palace."

The tour starts in Vancouver, Canada, on December 2 and they will visit a host of cities including Los Angeles, New York, Madrid and Sydney.

Last week, the group added an extra seven London dates after the original concert sold out in 38 seconds.
