Tom Cruise sent a private jet to pick up his groceries, it has been claimed.

The 'Mission: Impossible' star - who is currently staying at a secluded ranch in Colorado with fiancée Katie Holmes and their three-month-old daughter Suri - reportedly shopped in style on Saturday (15.07.06) when Holmes developed a thirst for cherry soda.

According to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper, the 44-year-old actor wasted no time attending to his partner's wishes and ordered his two assistants to travel on his private jet to pick up the beverages and organic food.

The long-haul shopping trip caused a spectacle at the local airport when the plane waited for two hours on the runway as the delivery was unloaded.

The bizarre shopping trip is the latest attempt from the 'Top Gun' actor to keep his family out of the public eye.

Katie, 27, has also been rarely spotted since giving birth to Suri, who has still not made her first public appearance.
