Taylor Swift touches down in Kansas City With Boyfriend Travis Kelce, after a Successful Eras Tour Show in Singapore TOGETHER
Pop superstar Taylor Swift has touched down at Melbourne airport in her private jet ahead of her first Australian concert.
The 13-time Grammy winner landed at Tullamarine Airport about 12.49am on Thursday after an 11-hour journey from Honolulu on her Bombardier Global Express twin-jet plane.
Images from the airport show fans crowding the terminal wrapped in blankets and their comfiest outfits at midnight hoping to catch a glimpse of the singer, who has not been in Australia since her Reputation Tour in October 2018.
The silver set landed on the runway shortly before 1am to a round of applause from fans, before Swift was whisked into a waiting car and into the airport’s private terminal.
Officers from the Australian Federal Police guarded the area and the three exits, ensuring the singer’s safety as fans tracked the movements of the jet.
Swift will have two days to jump back into rehearsals before her first concert at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Friday night.
She will perform her three-and-a-half-hour long setlist for about 86,000 fans each night on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, before flying to Sydney for another four-night run from February 23 to 26.
About 2000 people were watching as her jet took off from the Hawaiian airport using the Flightradar24 website.
